embracing accusation

Father of Lies, coming to steal, kill and destroy
all my hopes of being good enough
I hear him saying, "Cursed are the ones who can't abide."

He's right, allelujah, he's right
The devil is preaching the song of the redeemed
That I am cursed and gone astray
I cannot gain salvation
Embracing Accusation

Could the Father of Lies be telling the truth of
God to me tonight?
That if the penalty of sin is death, then death is mine
I hear him saying, "Cursed are the one's who can't abide."

The devil's singing over me an age old song
That I am cursed and gone astray
Singing the first verse so conveniently over me
He's forgotten the refrain, "Jesus Saves!"

My struggle, in words. Thank you Shane and Shane.
