Timothy Brindle - Word of God
(from the album The Great Awakening)
© copyright 2005

Verse 1:
This Christian is radical/
What’s written is factual/
Let me first establish that all (Holy) scripture’s infallible/
Its God breathed His Word He exhaled/
To the blind in the spirit, makes the text Braille/
Embrace His mysteries, look and take a glance/
At the greatest history book, no fate or chance/
Because His word never fails unlike men who are sinning/
By His word He’s declared the end from the beginning/
And His plan of salvation is solely through scripture/
God reveals Himself yet it’s only a whisper/
To speak to man He’s greatly condescended/
But only His Spirit can make you comprehend it/
But we can’t grasp the whole of it it’s impossible/
Because the fact this Holy writ is inexhaustible/
Yet you claim His word has contradictions/
‘Cause you don’t have the Spirit and you’re not a Christian/
Imposters cannot see it with binoculars/
And only the canons inspired not the Apocrypha/
Ignoring the facts of it is horribly hazardous/
And I can assure you it’s historically accurate/
See the text we hold/
Is the Dead Sea scrolls/
And we testify that it sets free souls/
And renews the mind/
Of these dudes who rhyme/
And fiends who used to fry/
And inject needles.

Hook:
Grass where this flowers fade/
But the word of God endures forever/
A perfect treasure repeated 3x
Grass where this flowers fade/
But the Holy word of God endures forever and ever//

Verse 2:
Why there certain guys ignoring the fact/
That the Bible is the churches final authority black/
My brothers it is for sure/
We call the Bible Holy because it’s set apart from all other literature/
And forget philosophy His word has got to be the real/
Because it’s the only Holy book where prophecy fulfilled/
I was a foul pagan/
But mind you I’m now stating/
How the word of God made me wise the salvation/
Meet the Savior on a piece of paper/
See the glory of Christ He’s the Creator/
And each page has a really meaty flavor/
So we should savor it not say ‘I’ll read it later.’/
But make it our life
And our great delight/
Hide it in our hearts
Meditating on it day and night/
And be firmly rooted right next to Jesus/
Using hermeneutics and tight exegesis/
We should give God the glory/
Preach expository/
While teaching kids like "montesorri /
Be diligent to endure it and fear it/
Be killing sin by the sword of the Spirit/
Satan despises me/
It angers society/
That we speak in a biblical language variety/
Because it reveals that mankind is sinful/
But it revives the soul/
And makes wise the simple.

Bridge:
The Word of God observe His law/
See our need for Christ shows we’re surely flawed/
The Word of God observe His law/
See your need for Christ shows you’re surely flawed//

Verse 3:
Yo, instead of reading it we sit and we watch/
The idiot box, picking our crotch/
Fixing our thoughts on wickedest plots/
Our culture’s acted pitifully/
And Satan uses the wide spread lack of literacy/
See the world is deceptive/
And it’s horrid and wretched/
Because of it’s man made morals and ethics/
It’s subjective poop/
Misdirects the youth/
But God’s law is the only objective truth/
See lots of mens conventions are smart/
But only the word can judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart/
And the word’s suffice/
To give eternal life/
Because faith comes through hearing/
Hearing through the word of Christ/
A call to all/
And I’m not insulting y’all/
But the Spirit by the word saves without an alter call/
And through it His sheep hear the voice of the Shepard/
Once poisonous lepers now rejoicing forever/
Saved by His healing tongue/
The Spirit of God uses the Word of God to reveal the Son/
Umm, come consider this/
We once were wisdom less/
Because without the Spirit the words are a bunch of gibberish/
And without Him your still doomed with Satan/
Because only He gives the words: illumination/
It’s a sharp blade, it imparts Grace/
And sparks faith, a lamp shining in a dark place/
Christians always asks, ‘what’s God will for me?’ /
Well it’s found in His word search with humility/
The man of God’s equipped there’s no complications/
The scriptures efficient apart from confirmation/
According to scriptures Christ died in our (stead?)/
And it’s according to the scriptures that He rised from the dead/
Our only thing that the only thing that's tangible to focus on Emmanuel/
It’s our rock and it’s our hope/
And it’s our Holy manual.
