Romans 1:16-17
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
“Guilty”
When did it become breaking a rule
To say your name out loud in school
When your name’s the only one that sets us free?
When did it become incorrect
To speak the truth about life and death
When your life gave us all eternity?
Even if it gets me convicted
I’ll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you’s against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
If saying “I believe” is out of line
If I’m judged ’cause I’m gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I wanna be guilty
I’ll rise up and honor you
I’ll testify to the good you do
‘Cause your grace and your mercy have overtaken me
So even if it gets me convicted
I’ll be on my knees with my hands lifted
If serving you’s against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
If saying “I believe” is out of line
If I’m judged ’cause I’m gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I wanna be guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming
Your ways, your truth, your life
I’ll pay the price to be your light
If serving you’s against the law of man
If living out my faith in you is banned
Then I’ll stand right before the jury
If saying “I believe” is out of line
If I’m judged ’cause I’m gonna give my life
To show the world the love that fills me
Then I wanna be guilty by association
Guilty of being a voice proclaiming
Your ways, your truth, your life
I’ll pay the price to be your light
Oh, I wanna be guilty
