You’ve heard it said, but do you honestly believe it’s true? You can cast away all these failures and, instead, cling to The One who makes all things new You’re only condemned if you elect to stay in those chains So why not relinquish your struggles to The One who’s ALREADY endured that pain?
If we’ll confess our sins one to another, we’ll have no reason to hide And, maybe just then, we’ll finally rid ourselves of this filthy thing called Pride We have no need to be faultless; it’s an endeavor we cannot undertake So open your heart to your fellow man, and let’s take back the meaning of doing it “For Christ’s sake”
He tells us we’re no longer condemned, if only we choose to accept Yet, so often we’ll refuse because we simply can’t help but see ourselves as inept He tells us we’re no longer condemned, if only we choose to believe And, instead, we’ll deny because we’re so conditioned to think we’re forced to grieve
Those hurts you feel; those mistakes you’ve made – you’re allowed to let them go Cast those demons aside, for latching on will only allow them to grow That Enemy’s lies can only grab hold of us if we allow him to persist So, starting today, let’s only accepts words from The One who allowed us to nail Him by the wrist
You are NOT condemned It’s nothing but a trick; nothing but another lie You are NOT condemned The Lord feels compassion for every tear you’ve cried You are NOT condemned From His words, waters of everlasting life will spring You are NOT condemned You need just to turn your heart over to The Everlasting King
You are NOT condemned! He wants nothing more than for you to give up all that pain and bother You are NOT condemned! Let truths speak into your soul that only come from your Eternal Father You are NOT condemned! He implores you to look up towards His face, then you’ll see YOU ARE NOT CONDEMNED! He took it all away when He agreed to hang from that tree. Joshua Burrows
