Embracing Accusation

This is a song by Shane and Shane (love them) called Embracing Accusation. It's about how Satan tells us how unworthy and undeserving we are of salvation, and how he is right. But the great part of it that Satan fails to tell us is that Jesus came and died to save us and to make us righteous heirs of God! What a wonderful gift. One that needs to be remembered especially during this time of year when EVERYTHING is commercialized and taken lightly!


EMBRACING ACCUSATION

The father of lies
Coming to steal
Kill and destroy
All my hopes of being good enough
I hear him saying cursed are the ones
Who can’t abide
He’s right
Alleluia he’s right!

The devil is preaching
The song of the redeemed
That I am cursed and gone astray
I cannot gain salvation
Embracing accusation

Could the father of lies
Be telling the truth
Of God to me tonight?
If the penalty of sin is death
Then death is mine

I hear him saying cursed are the ones
Who can’t abide
He’s right
Alleluia he’s right!

Oh the devil’s singing over me
An age old song
That I am cursed and gone astray
Singing the first verse so conveniently
He’s forgotten the refrain
JESUS SAVES!
