Sometimes I feel like I don't want to argue
Sometimes I feel like I could pretend
That the way that you're livin'
Will take you to Heaven
Only I know that
It never will fly
I try to explain, but you say I condemn you
I warn you 'bout Hell 'cause I know you're at risk
If you saw me steppin'
On quicksand or thin ice
Wouldn't you tell me?
Would you let me die?
I don't ever wanna feel like I did not say
Everything you need to know to be born again
I don't ever wanna be on that judgment day
If you do reject that love, take me far away
It's hard to be friends when I feel like an actor
It's hard to pretend that nothing is wrong
At least you have heard of the Truth that can save you
Only trust Christ and you never will die
CHORUS
LEAD
Out on the edge of town
Was where they spilled His blood
'Cause He said they were wrong
They killed the Son of God
If you're my friend or not
To God I must give way
If I offend someone
Then that's the price I pay
Oh, no, I can't change
Oh, no, I can't change
Oh, no, I can't change
That's where I stand
Hebrews 13:12
And so Jesus also suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood. Let us, then, go to him outside the camp, bearing the disgrace he bore.
