Tarnished Glory

©2014 David Moody

I’m not cryin’ when I’m dyin’

I can look you in the eye an’ tell you’re lyin’

I can’t believe the situation

One of us could use a “deep-six vacation”

And it isn’t me

I harbor no hatred

Though you tried like hell,

But LOVE is strong and sacred

And it fits so well

Unless you don’t know how to wear it

And you rip it and you tear it to pieces

When I know damn well He sees us

And He’s coming to release us all

From your tarnished glory

This was your rise and fall

Now it’s the end of your story

I know it is the TRUTH that truly frees us

I know it is the truth - so help me, God
