Being the Best

Who remembers those in second place,
Those who came up short running the race,
Who couldn't beat one other person,
Who can never say that they have won?

We live our lives like these same people
We're seen as stupid, weak, and feeble
Once we can say that we had it all
Only to stumble, stagger, and fall

We became small when we once were big
To eat we have to first feed the pigs
We have become dead, lost, and strangers
But our Father's slaves have it better

When He provides we are family
Provide for myself it's all bout me
I hide behind my excuses and lies
Forgetting bout He, for us, who died

I'm tired, I'm weary
I realize my sins
I am now self-aware
Celebration begins

Celebration time
Because we're the best
Celebration time
We're better than the rest

The Father has shown unconditional love
Even though we were least deserving of
Cast aside the Laws, throw away your fears
Become unhindered, celebration is here

We are called to give generously
Doing it quick, spontaneously
Just like the things the Father gives us
Cause we came back, He made a big fuss

Eating, drinking, whatever we do
Knowing who to give our praises to
Living in celebration daily
Constantly give God the glory

I'm tired, I'm weary
I realize my sins
I am now self-aware
Celebration begins

Celebration time
Because we're the best
Celebration time
We're better than the rest

The Father has shown unconditional love
Even though we were least deserving of
Cast aside the Laws, throw away your fears
Become unhindered, celebration is here

The True Enemy

Inspired by Numbers 25 & Matthew Henry's commentary While the Israelites were camped at Acacia Grove To defile themselves the men willingly chose Seduced by Moabite women and their deities Making the Lord angry and release His fury Rapport with the wicked is more harmful than enmity It is our immoral desires that is the true enemy Giving into worldly interests and its pleasures Forgetting to put the Lord at our core and center Let us execute His vengeance in zeal and faith To remain in His good graces and holy estate So God may make a special covenant of peace And His divine favor upon us may increase God punishes the wicked not with a rod But with swords exposing their profane facade Punishing those who tempt others to fail While His righteousness will always prevail

More Than Conquerers

Inspired by Matthew Henry's  commentary  on Numbers chapter 21 Before our march to the Promised Land We may find ourselves in enemy's hands But let us look thoroughly to the Lord Our only way to keep moving forward So instead of Arad, we have Hormah As the enemy's sins are enormous God will bring about their destruction His love for His children brings protection But as we continue on our journey We can be impatient and be in a hurry Then complain about the Lord's provision Bringing about the Lord's derision The serpent comes back to bite at our heels Making our grievances his meal Our very lives does he greedily steal Making us look up so we can be healed Look up and see the serpent of bronze Do not fear death that corresponds The venom may stir up our sinful passions But only the Lord can bring salvation Do not forget and always remember When God blessed us with living water Our expectations should be tempered And only rely on His Grace and His Favor Wicked men tr...
