BarlowGirl: Keep Quiet
------------------------------------------
Oh the things I've sacrificed
So that I could bring You to this world
I want them to see You in me
But Your name just keeps them far from me
So I'll keep quiet
Let's hope they see I'm different
Jesus, Jesus why is Your name offensive?
Why are we so scared to tell this world You've saved us
When all of the hope of the world's in Your name
Why are we so scared to say
Oh Jesus
Jesus
Jesus
If I avoid to speak Your name
Tell me would You do the same to me
If relevance becomes my goal
Tell me will I lose You to its hold
But if I keep quiet they'll never see I'm different
Jesus, Jesus why is Your name offensive?
Why are we so scared to tell this world You've saved us
While all of the hope of the world is in Your name
Why are we so scared to say
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
Oh Jesus
I'm sorry I've cared about my name more than Yours
I'm so sorry how could I hide You anymore
But if I keep quiet
They'll never see I'm different
Jesus, Jesus why is Your name so offensive?
Why are we so scared to tell this world You've saved us
When all of the hope of the world's in Your name
Why are we so scared to say
Oh, Jesus
Oh, Jesus
Oh, Jesus
Oh, Jesus
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest and poverty will come on you like a bandit and scarcity like an armed man.
(Proverbs 6:10-11 and Proverbs 24:33-34)
I have made a covenant with my eyes, not to look lustfully at a girl.
Job 31:1
But sexual immorality, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not even be mentioned among you, as becomes saints; nor filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not appropriate; but rather giving of thanks. Ephesians 5:3-4
