the pungent air of self – v6

speaking of how God has saved us
In our language, our witness
how Christ died for “me”
how He lifted me from “my” sin
all of this offal, the pungent air of self,
if our witness is not balanced
to the glory of our God
speaking praise of Him
of His glorious deeds
of creation, of beauty
not just me, me, me
