Self-righteous
Acts 24:25 New English Translation
25 While Paul was discussing righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became frightened and said, “Go away for now, and when I have an opportunity, I will send for you.”
Self-righteous
Restricting rules of selfishness imposed by the real me
The part I don’t recognize is much better than my clone
The one I follow day and night for I chose to be free
And that my friend, I prove before the day is done
Read my lips. I never lie. My life is an open book
Truth, my friend, resides in here from cover to cover
I am not what you think that I’m rotten to the core
God made me this way, and so don't roll me over
I am human, you know, with some flaws here and there
Mostly good and a little bad, but aren’t we all that way
The bible? Well! Is written by men, so there’s wrong everywhere
So I do what appears good to me, and this is for what I pray.
Jan Wienen
