It Meant What It Said
© Trevor Baker 2010
For years I read my Bible
Line by line
That might explain why somehow
I got left behind
They’re movin’ onward and upward
So they say
Well that’s just fine
But why am I the one to pay?
I was mindin’ my own business
So I thought
Just leadin’ life the way
The good Lord taught
But then they labeled me a misfit
I’d done wrong
Just because I wouldn’t follow
Some new song
I know that times have changed
I’ve seen the news
And it’s brought about some strange
Conflicting views
How they turned the good guys
Into bad guys I don’t know
And why does everything that’s pure
Now have to go
They’ve even got the Bible
On the block
They’re questioning the whole thing
Lock and stock
And those in the Church
Who’ve stood strong
And kept their head
Now know for sure
That it meant just what it said
Chorus
It meant what it said
When it talked about the last days
And what would happen to believers
Who would humbly wear His name
It meant what it said
When it spoke of Hell and Heaven
No, I haven’t lost my head
But I now know the Bible meant
Just what it said
It’s all happening so fast
I dare not blink
They even want control
Of what I think
It’s not an option
We’re required to join their team
Some days it’s like I’m livin’
In a dream
I thought all this stuff
Was somewhere down the road
I’ll need all His power
To bare this heavy load
What will become of those
Who weren’t the least prepared?
I must conclude that they’ll all soon
Be runnin’ scared
Chorus
It meant what it said
When it talked about the last days
And what would happen to believers
Who would humbly wear His name
It meant what it said
When it spoke of Hell and Heaven
No, I haven’t lost my head
But I now know the Bible meant
Just what it said
Tag
I’m not in step with the times
Don’t read all their nursery rhymes
And no, I haven’t lost my head
But I now know the Bible meant
Just what it said
