Skillet - My Beautiful Robe
from the album "Skillet"
I want pleaseure in Your sight
I want to subscribe to Your delieght
So hold on and see what I do for you
Oh by the way, did you see me dress in my beautiful robe
My head was bleeding so red
But of all the thorns in my crown, the roses blended
Instead with my beautiful robe carries on, I"ll carry on
I cut down a tree said "man would you look at me"
I stuck my head in a thorn bush
Man I was decieved
Oh my brother, your hands are full of sores
But God bless you brother
My nails are longer than yours
I was cruccified with Christ
But how come I'm not dead
God gave me a cross but I made my own instead
My beautiful cross caries on, I'll carry on
I cut down a tree
I nailed myself to the wood
I screamed in agony
'Cause the glory wasn't good
I fell to my kneesa nd I remember
The words of God pierced so hard
"Your righteousness is like filthy rags"
And I fell to my knees
And said "God, my filthy robe"
