Wow, I'm thinking that's a stretch. I get the Paulinian doctrine that faith without works is dead. I also understand the concept that all men fall short of the gory of God. Is there a chance you were having a bad day and looking to be triggered? This is the problem with religious zeal. You take one line out of context to proselytize. Did you read further down the lyrics of this most basic and limited expression? "Make me a man of grace". Half the song is about a mans love for his woman and the other is a man asking "The Lord" to make him humble, "throw my pride away". Might be a good thing for all of us to consider. This is not complex enough to be part of the esoteric agenda, Hand. These are poorly written lyrics that sing average at best. I'm from Oklahoma and I know one thing for sure; If your gonna play in Texas you gotta have a fiddle in the band. If your gonna play in the NDN Nations you gotta have a better fiddle player than that.
