Works
by ApologetiX

Album: From Hair To Eternity


Parody of "Words" performed by Missing Persons
and written by Terry Bozzio & Warren Cuccurullo
(Ephesians 2:8-10; Titus 2:14, 3:8, 3:14; James 2:14-26; Matthew 7:16-23;
1 Corinthians 15:10; Romans 6:1-23)

Do you have deeds ... do you care?
Do you need deeds ... do you care?

My works will prove and bear my salvation out
You worship God above, but I have my doubts
That you realize -- uh what His Book said
You look at me and say you're into grace
It's like Ephesians 2:10 has no place with 2:8 and 9
You got no works -- you're just dead

What are works for? We're all on missions from the Lord
What are works for? We're goin' fishin'
What are works for? If no one did them there's no use talkin' 'bout God

Read Titus we'll go over doctrine with Paul
If those good works are having no effect at all
There's some funny things -- to Titus Paul wrote
Come to Titus chapter 2:14 for directions
3:8, 3:14, too, will both give you the strong impression
That there's more to grace -- than Satan might sell

What are works for? In First Corinthians study more
What are works for? In chapter 15
What are works for? In verse 10, listen, you know who's talkin' -- that's Paul

Do you have deeds ... do you care?
Do you need deeds ... do you care?

Let Him preside -- over your dead body
Hope to see it soon -- when will I know?
Your faith is private, so it's not showin'
But we'll always have works when His grace has changed us
Time's ticking, my friend
But I guess you know it now
I guess you know it now
I guess you know it now, know it now
Now, now, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow

Peruse in chapter 2 in James there's other things you'll find
And Matthew 7:21 if you feel so inclined
Go to Romans 6 -- I think you'll find it there, too
Maybe a holy Lord is calling you to action
You can't be irresponsible -- you're not in traction
Go and answer Him -- before He pulls out the rug

What are works for? We know from James 2:24
What are works for? But no one listens
What are works for? When yours are missin' there's no use talkin' 'bout God

What are works for? Well, no one's gets 'em in the door
What are works for? It's not some system
What are works for? They show we're different from phonies talkin' 'bout God

What are works for? We know salvation's from the Lord
What are works for? With no additions
What are works for? They grow our witness with those who ought to know God

1 Corinthians 15:10
But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me was not without
effect. No, I worked harder than all of them--yet not I, but the grace of God
that was with me.
