Analysis of GOD OF THE JUST
Barry Green Jr 1973 (Florida)
GOD OF THE JUST
Tell me that I'm wrong
That my witness don't belong.
I'll point to my Savior's Love
And place my Trust on God above
Yet still you judge me
Don't you know I am Free?
Free to tell the story
Of our Saviors Grace and Glory
You boast in your arrogant pride
That my ego has no where to Hide
I heard you, the whole world heard
I'll keep preaching God's Word
Judge me please, judge my talk
Raise a measure against my walk
You almost hit me with that plank
Yes, one of our witness has sank
I wish you no Ill will. I only disagree
Your self righteous arrogance judges me
So from my feet I just shake of the dust
And leave you to the God of the Just
AMEN
