Sanctification Parade – Lukewarm lyrics
Verse 1
You know me like no other, You knew me from the start
They look at my outward appearance, but You look on my heart
You are all-knowing, even my hairs You have numbered
You know when I rise and You know when I slumber
I detest my sin, as it leaves on me these imprints
Of guilt from falling back so many times on these old footprints
And when there's no improvement, only negative movement
I know I need to call on You, Your strength I must pursue it
Chorus
After all is said and done
The struggles You have overcome
Don't want to die a failing son
I want to end a job well done
Verse 2
Don't want a relationship of endless bribes
I will follow You, no compromise
Because even the demons know that You are God
As they tremble in fear, yet, against You, they plod
I take this new life and desert who I've been
And never turn back, 'cause I'm cut loose from sin
This new life is better, I'm finally free
This new life is better, I'm finally free
Chorus
After all is said and done
The struggles You have overcome
Don't want to die a failing son
I want to end a job well done
Bridge 1
Don't let me be lukewarm
I need to transform so we can form a connection
So I can head in Your direction
Don't let me be lukewarm
I need to transform so we can form a connection
That I can be just a section of Your flawless reflection
Bridge 2
What is the profit of a forfeited soul
To a world that lacks substance, to a meaningless hole?
And if the salt of the Earth has been robbed of it's taste
Where is it's place, this pitiful waste?
Bridge 1
Don't let me be lukewarm
I need to transform so we can form a connection
So I can head in Your direction
Don't let me be lukewarm
I need to transform so we can form a connection
That I can be just a section of Your flawless reflection
Guitar Solo
(This new life is better, I'm finally free)
Chorus
After all is said and done
The struggles You have overcome
Don't want to die a failing son
I want to end a job well done
You know me like no other, You knew me from the start
They look at my outward appearance, but You look on my heart
You are all-knowing, even my hairs You have numbered
You know when I rise and You know when I slumber
I detest my sin, as it leaves on me these imprints
Of guilt from falling back so many times on these old footprints
And when there's no improvement, only negative movement
I know I need to call on You, Your strength I must pursue it
Chorus
After all is said and done
The struggles You have overcome
Don't want to die a failing son
I want to end a job well done
