away from the congregation, the body
God there with me still
His Spirit calling, don’t!
be faithful, turn from your sin
there when I refuse to heed your words
going my own way, selfish
mindful, aware that I am wrong
yet choosing to disobey
freedom run amuck
no boundaries, bad choices
lost in excess, my sin
disobeying my Savior
who died on the cross
as if driving another nail
spitting in his face
