Pretty Good Company
My friend,
do you have an eye for history?
The cycle of the little "c" church
has been
pride,
prejudice,
and misery.
It's gonna happen all over and over again
unless
we get our focus on The Spirit
and our eyes off of men;

...as for me,
I've got some pretty good company.
I've got
Jesus Christ,
Martin Luther,
Copernicus,
and Ghandi.
Unlike Galileo;
I just,
I cannot bend my knee.
I've had a taste of the Truth
and I won't go back
to your cheap chablis..

Go ahead.
Pin your labels on me.
The security of the flesh
has made you blind.
You just cannot see.
You don't want to walk on water?
Well,
that's alright.
Go ahead.
Stay in your boat
where you can sleep tight...

...as for me,
I've got some pretty good company.
I've got
Jesus Christ,
Martin Luther,
Copernicus,
and Ghandi.
Unlike Galileo,
I just,
I cannot bend my knee.
I've had a taste of the Truth,
and I won't go back,
to your cheap chablis.

This song hasn't been recorded yet,
but I sing it to my daughter, Abby, every chance I get.
