Senseless Abandon

Lyrics

[Intro] "You could be born in the church! Your mother and father could raise you in the church! They could bring all your meals and feed you in the church! They could bring a cot and let you sleep in the church! Then they could bring your desk so that you could work out of the church! Then when you die, they could remove the pulpit and bury you in the church! But if you don't know Jesus you're gonna die in the church and wake up in Hell!" "Watch the wire and check your targets." "Think about the future!" [Verse 1] The cold of winter now resides where fires once burned bright Unseen forces waging war for possession of your sight Allowing walls to crumble, leaving armor to decay The enemy you once engaged steals vital time away [Verse 2] O children, how could you ignore your slowly rotting soul? A carnal mind will bring you death, sin will take its toll From certain death you came to life accepting saving grace The seed was sown on stony ground, you now spit in Savior's face [Verse 3] Hand already to the plow, gaze back at what you've lost Withdraw yourself from servanthood reconsidering the cost Pride infests your spirit, love of money rooting deep Ignore conviction's dying plea, now say "Goodbye morality" [Verse 4] Looking for the answers that you once held in your hand Watch your treasures crumble like a kingdom in the sand Father Time exacts his dues, they're getting hard to pay And even so you turn your back and walk farther away "Wake up in Hell!" [Verse 5] Why this apostasy for you know your days are few? You know whatsoever you sow will be reaped back by you Turn back unto the Lord for in Him is life alone Abandoning the truth you've known is death and it makes no sense at all [Outro] "Check your targets." "Think about the future!" "Hang on, boys, it's all downhill from here."
