The Promise Keepers

Lyrics

[Intro: Dave Trenga] Go [?] take [?]! "Honey, I've made a terrible mistake. I have given you my role. I gave up leading this family, and I forced you to take my place. Now I must reclaim my role. I'm not asking you. I'm telling you. You must submit for the survival of our family and our culture. Remember, God wants you to! " [Verse 1: Dave Trenga] Surrender to your rightful keepers do it for our Lord A life of holy servitude is women's just reward Have faith in all our promises surrender yourselves to men And when you get to Heaven, you'll be a servant once again [Verse 2: Dave Trenga] The promise keepers are on a mission, the conversion of a nation But only by total submission will women find salvation They justify spiritual slavery by claiming it's God's will They're trying to insure oppression through legislative bills [Chorus: Dave Trenga & Adrienne Droogas] Surrender-submit Dave Wardell wants you to do it Surrender-submit Bill McCartney wants you to do it Surrender-submit Jesus Christ wants you to do it Surrender-submit God wants you to do it Surrender-submit [Verse 3: Dave Trenga] We're second only to God when it comes to absolute authority It's your duty as God-fearing Christians to help cleanse society Submit all aspects of your life for us to review When it's family, business or sexuality, we'll tell you what to do [Verse 4: Dave Trenga] Souls are held for ransom by The Religious Right Securing what they believe to be the politics of Christ They instill the fear of God by threatening the masses So their homophobic, anti-women lobby platform passes [Chorus: Dave Trenga & Adrienne Droogas] Surrender-submit Tony Brown wants you to do it Surrender-submit Steve Chavis wants you to do it Surrender-submit Jesus Christ wants you to do it Surrender-submit God wants you to do it Surrender-submit [Verse 5: Dave Trenga] "Never have 300,000 men come together throughout history, except for the purpose of war" We'll start with homosexuality Then it's women, abortion, sinners and secularism All are subject to our political and spiritual exorcisms [Verse 6: Dave Trenga] Stealing away human rights while worshipers applaud All because they're threatened by the tyranny of God The only promises these bigoted men will keep Is the exploitation of a nation of mere sheep [Chorus: Dave Trenga & Adrienne Droogas] Surrender-submit Pat Robertson wants you to do it Surrender-submit James Kennedy wants you to do it Surrender-submit Bill Bright wants you to do it Surrender-submit James Dobson wants you to do it Surrender-submit Jim Berlucciwants you to do it Surrender-submit James Ryle wants you to do it Surrender-submit Jesus Christ wants you to do it Surrender-submit And your God wants you to do it Surrender-submit [Outro: Adrienne Droogas] Fuck you I will not surrender I will not submit
