Текст песни Faithful - Dr. AK Sterling

Faithful
Oh, King of kings and Lord of lords, you are my God
There is nothing like you
Jesus

Faithful
I can only imagine the frustration I put you through
Jesus
Have mercy on me for what I did, didn't, and was supposed to do

I'm a sinner and have sinned against you, my creator
What's wrong with me
I have faith that what your word says is true
I don't have to see

So I'm trying to cut out the things that I know ain't cool
You've done so much for me
How can I not live my life for you
Actually, how can I escape the fact that I owe my existence, salvation, and very life To you
I was bought with a price
Therefore, my life is not my own
I was doing before your sacrifice

That means before I act, think twice
My life is not my own
We are responsible for what we know
So seeing how I know I don't deserve it, nevertheless, your grace, I'm going to need a little bit

More of it
I read the books of the prophets and can see your thought process, anger and distress
You are love
So you made something to love and have dominion here on earth, something to worship you and

Recognize your worth
But we so often forget you and cause you hurt
We don't look to the hills or even up at all unless no one else can help the moment we
Fall and then the moment we rise, become blind and fail to realize, fail to open our eyes and see who to call
The earth is the Lord's and the fullness therein
Instead, we rejoice in our sin
And those that do claim to know you figure you'll forgive us just one more game

You told Jose to marry a whore and he loved her
She cheated, came back in the next day, repeated her actions
She needed more, couldn't get enough satisfaction, left Jose's bed to go sleep on the floor
Run the streets and defile herself even more by not being faithful

See this don't just apply to freaks
God called the prophet Jose by name to go get her back and love her just the same
What
What part of the game is that

What about the shame
What about the blame
You're going to commit adultery and still want to share my name
You for real or insane

He could have said that to her, but he kept it in his brain
This is quite the story because it helped me see how you feel and what you go through
For me
Oh Lord, thank you for these examples in your word

You instructed Jose after that, after the fact, after he could relate to go tell the
People their fate, that that's what they were doing to you
But if they repent, it's not too late
We are supposed to be in covenant with you, in love with you, faithful to you, dependent

On you and spend time with you
Much like a marriage
So when we commit adultery against you, it's nasty, filthy and trash
It's true

Why would you want us back
We fornicated with the world right in your face
Worship the creation instead of the creator as if we forgot our place
You want us to trust you, faith, even though we can't see you

We should be inclined to do what it is you tell us to do because you are the source of
Our supply
But we don't put you first, even though your return is nigh
You're coming back for a bride without blemish

A group of folks that hate evil, pride and arrogance depend on you and have reverence
Thank you, Jesus, because from our filthiness, you freed us after our rebellion
You had mercy, still received us
I can only imagine your frustration

So I'm so glad you're patient
In my life, proof of that is blatant
I don't want to be like Jose's wife anymore
Unto you, my God, I want to be faithful and through my actions prove that I'm grateful
