Change Up

[Sue J Love]

Smaller, smaller, what they holler
Shorter, shorter, all in order
Wordy, wordy, much too nerdy
Chop them, chop them, make them purdy

Lessen, lessen the offenses
Feel good, feel good, more pretenses
Laughter, laughter, always joking
Making fun and always poking

Sadness, sadness, not in order
Grieving over sins on border
Repent, repent, not discussing
Feelings, feelings, o’er them fussing

Jesus, Jesus, twisted image
Turn the tables, keep them glistening
Non offensive, what’s in order
Sins a plenty piled by hoarders

Obey, obey, toss out window
Playing, playing their Nintendo
Happy, happy, keep them smiling
While their wicked deeds they’re piling

Gospel, gospel, not the message
Witness, witness, not envisage
Funny, funny, keep them laughing
While their chances they are passing

Modern, modern, that’s their market
Pleasing people is the target
Flip-flop, flip-flop gospel message
While their souls with lies they damage

Change up, change up, truth in order
Share the gospel with sin’s hoarders
Call them to forsake sin’s practice
Let obedience be their status
