231112: Take Away My Sin

from Leap Songs, Part 1 by James Tristan Redding

/

lyrics

I was not there in the garden
Did not take the bait
Heaven's heart began to harden
Before I learned to pray

Will I disappear if you take away my sin
How would my footsteps remember where they've been
Do I need savin' again and again
What becomes of me if you take away my sin

Sun comes up goes back down
I been livin' in between
Chasin' freedom I've never found
Spirit's willing flesh is weak

Will I disappear if you take away my sin
How would my footsteps remember where they've been
Do I need savin' again and again
What becomes of me if you take away my sin

What makes a man need forgiveness
Gives that man a voice
I been silent and superstitious
Since I was a boy
