They are awesome, and the former lead singer, Derek Webb, is Reformed! Of course, I am just getting into their music because they came out with their first two albums in my Arminian days [img]http://www.the-highway.com/w3timages/icons/puke.gif" alt="puke" title="puke[/img]! I'm glad those days weren't long (Gives new meaning to Mark 13:20- "If the Lord had not cut short those days, no one would survive. But for the sake of the elect, whom he has chosen, he has shortened them."<br><br>Anyway, there was this song called "Thankful," which is so rich in Biblical doctrine, but I didn't want to hear it because I was, after, all, an Arminian, and it was ME who chose Christ, and what was this talk about "no one righteous."<br><br>Well I have REPENTED of that, and it was GOD who produced this repentence in me, by the way. So here are the words of the wonderful song "Thankful":<br><br>I ran across an old box of letters <br>While I was baggin up some clothes for Goodwill <br>You know I had to laugh that the same old struggles <br>That plagued me then are plaguing me still <br>I know the road is long from ground to glory <br>But a boy can hope he's getting some place <br>But you see, I'm running from the very clothes I'm wearing <br>And dressed like this I'm fit for the chase <br><br>No, there is none righteous <br>Not one who understands <br>There is none who seek God <br>No not one, no not one <br><br>I am thankful that I'm incapable <br>Of doing any good on my own <br>'Cause we're all stillborn and dead in our transgressions <br>We're shackled up to the sin we hold so dear <br>So what part can I play in the work of redemption <br>I can't refuse, I cannot add a thing <br><br>'Cause I am just like Lazarus and I can hear Your voice <br>I stand and rub my eyes and walk to You <br>Because I have no choice <br><br>I am thankful that I'm incapable <br>Of doing any good on my own <br>I'm so thankful that I'm incapable <br>Of doing any good on my own <br><br>It's by grace I have been saved <br>Through faith it's not my own <br>It is the gift of God and not by works <br>Lest anyone should boast<br><br>Copyright Caedmon's Call 1999<br><br><br>Soli Deo Gloria!<br>Marie

True godliness is a sincere feeling which loves God as Father as much as it fears and reverences Him as Lord, embraces His righteousness, and dreads offending Him worse than death~ Calvin
