SANCTIFY

I am a Pharisee

I am a bigot

I am a failure

I am a murderer

Can you forgive me

Can you remake me

Can you cleanse me

Can you resurrect me

I'm a Pharisee with a

Tunnel vision view

My finger is a gun sight

Pointed right at you

Is there one who can forgive me

I am just a bigot

Superior by birth

Hating all unlike me

Measuring their worth

Is there one who can remake me

There's a sword of judgment swinging

But is it yours or is it mine

There's a river of blood flowing

There's a price when you sanctify

I am just a failure

Rotting in self pity

Puss amidst the plague

Disfiguring the pretty

Can you cleanse me

I'm a murderer who

Sent men to their graves

Buried with my conscience is

Hope I could be saved

Can you resurrect me

There's a sword of judgment swinging

But is it yours or is it mine

There's a river of blood flowing

There's a price when you sanctify

Judged by man was the plan

Since the day of birth

Perfect man with a perfect plan

Sent to cleanse the earth

Don't believe you can't be redeemed

Don't believe you're gone

He paid the cost

Don't count the loss

His blood has set you free

Sanctify

All it takes is belief

Confession, repentance of sins

Leave behind all the crime

All the pain you've seen

Read the word, live the word

Fulfill your life to be

Jesus Christ sanctify

With your blood wash me clean

Jesus Christ sanctify
