Luke 6 vs 42. How can you say to your brother, 'Brother let me take the speck out of your eye,' when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brothers eye. (New International Version)
clearly, you don't see me
as you should. is it the wood?
it's a fleck, just a speck
what the heck? this defect
i suspect, magnified, multiplied,
through some wide-eyed
black-hued, worldview
that you hold...
as your lens
the All-Seeing sees
these hypocrysies
with sinless scrutiny
and injects His perspective.
granting an invitation
under grace, to a place
face to face, eye to eye,
you and i, each must try
to remove from ourselves
the wood, that would
guarantee, you see me
clearly...as you should.

Colour Me
Colour Me
Colour me midnight and ebony,
The inner, blackest side you'll see,
Sins darkness washes over me,
I drown within its inky sea.
Colour me scarlett, do you see
The inner, blackest side you'll see,
Sins darkness washes over me,
I drown within its inky sea.
Colour me scarlett, do you see
Irreverant complacency?
Trangression and iniquity,
Have stained the very core of me.
Colour me crimson, look and see,
Him nailed and hanging on the tree,
His blood outpoured, flows pure and free,
Salvations debt at Calvary.
Colour me Jesus, do you see?
His righteousness and purity?
My sins erased, I'm blemish free,
Trangression and iniquity,
Have stained the very core of me.
Colour me crimson, look and see,
Him nailed and hanging on the tree,
His blood outpoured, flows pure and free,
Salvations debt at Calvary.
Colour me Jesus, do you see?
His righteousness and purity?
My sins erased, I'm blemish free,
When Jesus is the colour of me.
