stedfastt - not perfect lyrics
yo, stedfastt on the mic
i know everybody would like to be perfect
but the truth is, in this life we can only strive to be
christ is the only one who came
and lived a sinless life on our behalf
so that by faith we could be declared righteous
in him
i can hear them makin’ noise from a mile away, they ride away
to evangelize, equipped wit’ the holy script’s
around the way they found the spot
they finally got a parking sp-ce about a block away from the destination
christ is lord they say
as they preach to nations what they claim to be the way
i hear a gospel message but its not amazin’
they proclaimin’ works based salvation
not a christian if you sin
a 1 john 3:9 misinterpretation
john is speakin’ of unrepentant sin
in christ rebellion’s not our occupation
like before regeneration
before the holy spirit came and gave us life
eyes to see, ears to hear, faith equals justification
in chapter 1 verse 8
john includes himself as one who has sin, no debate
we deceive ourselves if we deny this trait
we’re born again yet
still we wrestle wit’ a sinful nature
paul in romans 7 correlates
“wretched man that i am!
who will deliver me from this body of death?
thanks be to god through jesus christ our lord!”
i hate sin man, i’m not a heathen (uh)
i fall short but i strive to keep his law
i love christ yet i fell this weekend (ahh!)
i thank god for his grace in weakness
i hate sin man, i’m not a heathen (uh)
i fall short but i strive to keep his law
i love christ yet i fell this weekend (ahh!)
i thank god for his grace in weakness
to the saints i write
glory to the christ who set us free
from the penalty of all of our many sins
when we first believed
where as we were once aliens to the covenant
enemies, yet in him we found life and peace
we received adoption as sons
we are one with the father
aka elohim
for the lamb without blemish was slaughtered to redeem us
he was marred, crucified on golgotha
while we were yet heathens
before the rebirth, we were rebels by nature
sinkin’ in sand, children of wrath
in dire need of the son of man
full of blasphemies, and nasty habits
experts at masking our filth like spiritual cavities
such insanity
in adam we all die
what a tragedy
but in christ we rise to new life
praise his majesty
israelites and gentiles alike, united by faith
made into one new man
new creation
called to love and obey him
“no one born of god makes a practice of sinning
for god’s seed abides in him
and he cannot keep on sinning
because he has been born of god” (john 3:9, 10)
i hate sin man, i’m not a heathen (uh)
i fall short but i strive to keep his law
i love christ yet i fell this weekend (ahh!)
i thank god for his grace in weakness
i hate sin man, i’m not a heathen (uh)
i fall short but i strive to keep his law
i love christ yet i fell this weekend (ahh!)
i thank god for his grace in weakness
my little children
i am writing these things to you so that you may not sin
but if anyone does sin
we have an advocate with the father
jesus christ the righteous
he is the propitiation for our sins
and not for ours only
but also for the sins of the whole world
(john 2:1, 2)
