Vengeance

Words and Music by Laura Larkins

(Deut. 32:35, Phil. 2, Luke 17:3)

"Vengeance is mine," You claim, Lord,
You will repay in time, Lord.
I will examine my heart and mind, Lord,
Confess my part, and make amends
So that nothing hinders my prayers.

I want to be righteous though broken,
(righteous though broken,)
righteous though broken.

Nothing I’ve suffered, or lost, Lord,
None of my scars are as great as Yours,
And you willingly took my penalty
To bring me to your peace, forgave my debt,
So that nothing hinders my prayers.

I want to be righteous though broken,
(righteous though broken,)
righteous though broken.

Someone apologizes honestly
I will forgive their sins against me
Bring me to the place of good will toward all men
til I'm willing to live with the consequences of their sin
so that nothing, nothing, hinders my prayers.

I want to be righteous
Righteous
Righteous.
