Take us there, Skitch!
Alone in my Principles
Elijah was a man of God who had a real hard time
Queen Jezebel was on his trail, he was runnin' for his life
He met God at a mountain cave and told Him what he thought
"I'm the last one left who loves You and they're gonna kill me off"
Oh, what Elijah didn't know
He was only one of seven thousand or so
Though it seems the whole world goes the other way
And all the courage you've got is spent to make you stay
One thing to remember as you walk this Way
You may feel a little cynical, but you're not alone in your principles
For Abraham the Promised Land was good enough to go
His faith became his righteousness, the Bible says it's so
And Abel, Enoch, Noah, and the rest Hebrews records
They were longing for a city whose Builder was the Lord
Oh, what the heroes never saw
One day, together, God will show us all
Though it seems the whole world goes the other way
And all the courage we've got is spent to make us stay
One thing to remember as we walk this Way
We may seem invisible, but we're not alone in our principles
Surrounded by a cloud of witnesses
Let us throw off all entanglements
And fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author of our faith
And run our race, let's run our race
So friends, now be encouraged when you feel like giving up
Remember those who've gone before and walked the road you walk
It's not about how much you do or who makes less mistakes
It's the heart that perseveres until the end that will be saved
Though it seems the whole world goes the other way
And all the courage I've got is spent to make me stay
One thing to remember as I walk this Way
It may seem incomprehensible
You may think it's astrophysical
But believe me - it's statistical!
I'm not alone in my principles
