How easy to distort the Jesus Spirit,
to lose his ways in empty, so called, praise.
We brush aside his life of liberation,
commitment, just a hollow passing phase.
Astonishment might greet the face we offer,
purporting to portray the grace of Christ,
our frowns sometimes betray the thoughts we're thinking,
our offer of God's love too highly priced.
Verses 3 follows
Tune: LORD OF THE YEARS
