The Sunday Afternoon Music Express Presents: Steve Camp

This one takes me back to simpler time in my life, in the 1980’s. When I was stronger, when I was hardcore for the Lord. This was my feelings about the Church World, at the time. Still is, to a degree. Maybe even more so now.

Fun Fact: Steve Camp was a Baptist, He is now a hardcore Calvinist.

Lyrics:

I feel sick when I look at the sin in my life
I can’t take it any longer
All along I’ve known what to do–what is right
But my heart wasn’t stronger

Why do I do the things I don’t want to do ?
Do you ever feel the same way?
Like sin has got it’s hold over you
You try to stop but you just can’t walk away

Why do I listen to the teaching that tickles my ears?
How they play on my emotions
How can they laugh at the truth in tears (?)
There’s no call for my devotion

Am I man enough to face the truth?
Do you ever feel the same way?
Like the world has got its hold on you
You try to stop but you just can’t walk away

Cheap grace
We’ve watered down the blood he shed
We say we’ve given all
But we have hardly bled

Cheap grace
You know it cost him everything
It’s easy to abuse
What you think is for free

In these last days men’s hearts will turn hard
They become lovers of pleasure
Oh how they run away from their God
To seek other treasures

Why do I do the things I don’t want to do?
Do you ever feel the same way?
Like the world has got its hold on you
You try to stop but you just can’t walk away

Repeat chorus

Am I man enough to face the truth?
Do you ever feel the same way?
Like the world has got its hold on you
You try to stop but you just can’t walk away

Repeat chorus

Repeat chorus

Do you think it’s for free?

I feel sick when I look at the sin in my life (x2)

I can’t take it any longer (x2)

Cheap grace
