MyPraize Band

The track itself will be posted within the next two weeks, but regardless, here are the lyrics. To be honest, I'm tired of mainstream music and even the vast majority of "Christian" music peddling little more than mere entertainment or "cheap grace" (in the words of Bonhoeffer). May we honor Jesus with more than words or church attendance in the days, months, and years to come. Amen.

"Seduced By Power"

A world so fragile, allure of power
Determined to create what they want
Over there, and here I stare at the flags waving and I choke
I think I can hear someone weeping
Someone with the scars to prove His worth
Misplaced allegiances show in time of war 

Seduced by power, speeches have them sold
But I will follow the Son of Man
Secuded by power, let the truth be told
No one can serve two masters

Torture is not the means to an end
Unless the end is losing your humanity
The farther they slide, the more they unveil
I question who has the eyes to see
The image of God in you and in me
And perhaps even in our enemies
Who is willing to go the way of the cross

Chorus

They who are most courageous take up their cross
So what is it going to be, this war or calvary

Chorus

P.S. Merry Christmas!
