Killing My Suffering with His Son
Parody of "Killing Me Softly with His Song" by Roberta Flack
((Matthew 20:28, Mark 10:45, John 3:16-17, 1 Timothy 2:5-6, Hebrews 9:15))
Coming to pay for my failures
Saving my life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
Killing my suffering with His Son
Filling my whole life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
I heard He sent us His Son
I heard but had my doubts
And so I came to see Him as lessons for a child
But there He was, this one voice
That stayed there through my life
Coming to pay for my failures
Saving my life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
Killing my suffering with His Son
Filling my whole life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
I failed to trust in Jesus
Embarrassed, blind, and proud
Until I found His letters and read each one out loud
I prayed that He'd forgive me
And He just kept right on
Coming to pay for my failures
Saving my life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
Killing my suffering with His Son
Filling my whole life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
It seemed as if He knew me
In all my darkness there
And when things looked quite gloomy
With Him I wasn't scared
When we accept our savior
He won't steer us wrong
Coming to pay for my failures
Saving my life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
Killing my suffering with His Son
Filling my whole life with His Word
Killing my suffering with His Son
