I Am Not Your Friend

Drifting through the holy smoke My sword don't swing Thrown into the filthy corners But that's okay Being good ain't enough lately I ain't got the strength to save me Can't figure what got me here I don't wanna preach alone It's easy to disappear But mother, I'm good as gold Am I not your boy Your child The kid that I once was Is dead Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah Men are joined (are joined) Adjourned Can't figure what got me here I don't want to preach alone It's easy to disappear But mother, I'm good as gold Am I not your boy Your child The kid that I once was Is dead Who and where and why and when And then (hmm) Will I get it again? Still operating Will I get it again? Again still operating Being good ain't enough lately I ain't got the strength to save me

We're an anchor for those who are hurting We're a harbor for those who are lost Sometimes it's not always easy bearing Calvary's cross We've been ridiculed by those who don't know Him And mocked by those who don't believe Still I love standing up for my Jesus 'Cause of all that He's done for me That's why I am not ashamed of the Gospel The Gospel of Jesus Christ No, I am not afraid to be counted And I'm willing to give my life See I'm ready to be all He wants me to be Give up the wrong for the right No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ For every moment His hand has held mercy For all the love that He's shown all my life A simple thanks doesn't say how I'm feeling I get tears in my eyes So as for me, I'm gonna keep on believin' In the One whose been so faithful to me I'm not out to please this whole world around me I've got my mind on eternity That's why I am not ashamed of the Gospel The Gospel of Jesus Christ No, I am not afraid to be counted And I'm willing to give my life See I'm ready to be all He wants me to be Give up the wrong for the right No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ I've got too much behind me To let this world bind me To some He's a name But to me, He's my everything I am not ashamed of the Gospel No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel I've got too much behind me to let this world bind me To some He's a name but to me He's my everything I am not ashamed of the Gospel No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel No, I am not ashamed of the Gospel Of Jesus Christ
