Once upon a time, on a very large college campus
A journalism student struggled to come up with story ideas.
His brain tried to think long and hard about what to write
But, to no avail, there were no ideas
I guess you could say this man was screwed
Up the crap creek without a paddle
This guy needed to think of something quick, for the deadline was quickly approaching
But his brain stayed quiet, not even a rattle.
This guy is about ready to blow his top
The editors keep pestering
This man has had enough
He is swollen with anger, the anger is festering
He wants to cuss out his teacher, everyone all around
The venom is about to come out of his mouth
But, all of a sudden
The Spirit came about
The man opened his mouth, ready to release
The anger deep inside him, ready to pop, pow!
But God stopped his tongue before he could form the words
The sound that came out of his mouth, the Chick-fil-a cow!
He wanted to cuss
Moo this and moo that
But The Holy Spirit
wasn't going to let him do that.
Finally, he just cried, because God convicted his heart
Of all the anger he had inside him
He just fell apart
Down to his knees, he fell about.
The man said "Lord, I had been such a fool"
"Why did I get mad?"
"Lord, you are so awesome!"
"Now, Lord, I feel bad."
God spoke to the man
God lifted up his face
God said "I love you, my child"
"Now rest in my redeeming grace!"
The man had so much joy
He couldn't control himself
The Lord's love was inside him
He was a jolly, bouncy Elf.
He grabbed the nearest person, tight in his hands
The man said "The Lord loves you, and I love you too"
The Lord is merciful, glorious, fantastic
The Word of God is good and true.
The person scoffed and said "That man is a nut"
"He is rambling on about preposterous things, he truly is insane."
But the Lord just watched as the love
Transformed the man, truly he's changed.
This is a story about a student who got right with God
Turned from his ways
He said "Lord, be with me always. Hold me and strengthen me"
"Let me love like You, Lord, all of my days."
You have a choice, God gives you free will
To choose the world or His redeeming grace
It is up to you to choose what's best,
