Shiloh Dynasty
BRIDE.
Sunday School always taught the world's ways is too broad
We’ll get to heaven one day, me and the whole squad
But all I knew about church back then was a fraud
Sung the same songs every week just to keep up the facade

Do I do this for the Lord or just to do a good job
Am I worshipping myself, or just to worship because
When ur a people pleaser your joy often get robbed
Better check twice , make sure we worship the same God


Swapped v-cards with my girl in the 13th grade
At first I curbbed her, abstinence was often up for debate
Save it for marriage, I would tell her you would be worth the wait
She was pro choice, stakes were raised, mistakes were made

My cell had rung one night, 3am i'm wide awake
Just fought off your own dad just to keep from getting raped
To give it up to him, the thought was too much to take
Right then I understood why you couldn't just wait


Why you let me go through this, LORD, I would pray
How could I ever use the same lips to sing Him praise?
If I understood like you do, would I still feel pain
All I know is the songs I sing will never sound the same
So I back to church like it made me a better man
If all the madness only a part of God’s plan
I need only to endure and learn In Christ alone I stand
So I had to cut you off like you were my right hand


Only me and no one else how i believed like a fool
But I knew your lock, wait til you clocked, thought I had not a clue
Turns out were nothing more or less the choices we choose
Are you sure you’re making your choices or are they making you?

But life goes on and now you’re gone by now you’re in the rear view
Hit up my cell it goes to mail seems like it wasn’t clear to you
But by now you’re old news, To think I would’ve married you
But in my mind it’s like you died and I just I had to bury you


We had to grow apart to get closer to the good news
That there is hope yet for eternal life and His name is Je’ sus
Confess He’s Lord, who died and rose for you and for me too
And all my sins forgiven only reason I forgive you


Renewed Faith to Obey ya, Like Gomer in Hosea
You pursued my heart, even when parts of me just want to play ya
To be espoused dwell in your house, part of a bigger picture
Like a groom, you'll return soon and we all get to be with ya

Free from shame known by name, that's why he had to paid the price
Took on our blame so that we'd gain his righteousness through sacrifice
His image might we become like for he's the way the truth and life
Eternal life, to be with Christ now he is clothing me in white


Built on a hill why must we hide not of this world but salt and light
Write my wrongs til I’m made right, No longer is my heart contrite
Faith to endure through the night, in the Body of christ I’m sanctified
Hell won’t prevail against this rock where you once said you’ll have your bride
