i was going to write a little bit about cell group leading,
and then relient k's "down in flames" came into my head.
a coinkidink?
Christians, we're all afraid of fire.
we prefer to suck on pacifiers.
baby pacifists, we're throwing fits.
we don't shake hands, we shake our fists.
Christians, we mourn, the thorn is stuck
in the side of the body watch it self-destruct.
the enemy is much ignored
when we fight this Christian civil war.
we're cannibals,
we watch our brothers fall.
we eat our own, the bones and all.
finally fell asleep on the plane,
to wake to see we're going down in flames.
we see the problem and the risk,
but nothing's solved.
we just say, "tsk, tsk, tsk,"
and, "shame, shame, shame."
let me pause to clariify
('cause i'm sure you're asking, "why?")
i stand before you and proudly claim
(actually i'm not that proud about this)
to belong to what this song complains
i'm part of the problem,
i confess,
but i gotta get this off my chest.
let's extinguish the anguish for which we're to blame,
and save the world from going down in flames.
