Rescued

If you don’t swallow your Pride
Your Pride will swallow you.
Like Jonah in the belly of the whale,
Your Pride will consume you, without fail,
And take you where you don’t wish to go
Yea, your pride will swallow you whole.

And only true repentance
From the depths of your heart
Will from your pride set you apart
By the way, it stinks in that belly, too
And spiritually speaking
Pride stinks on you –
Quite a mess, really
I must confess, really
Pride stinks on me, too!

God help us all to avoid the fall
that pride brings us to
Only by You and Your Cross
Will we make it through
Only when pride has been spewed
and we’ve learned humility
can we be

rescued
