Begone Spirit Of Shame
© Harold Vondenstein 9-09-03
Shame will shut you down
Blame will put you in the ground
Heed this spirit
And “off” you will go
Let it fester
And you’ll be no more
Not good for him
Or the kingdom
On the run
Don’t let it win
The spirit of shame
Don’t fall victim
To its game
Confess your sin
And be forgiven
No matter how great
He’ll take you in
Begone spirit of shame
You’re forgiven
By him
Confess
To him
Be forgiven
By him
It is done
Don’t let it run
Not the guilt
Not the shame
Not the pain of it all
Begone spirit of shame
It is done
Let it go
Don’t let the spirit of shame
Put you down
Go to our Lord
It’s his crown
He rules
Forgiven
Forgiven
Forgiven
That’s you
Forgiven
