We Were Just Wineskins in the Smoke
We were just wineskins in the smoke
We became oppressed by the smoke in our lives
And started to become cracked
Become brittle
We did not realize it
But the good in us started to drip through our seems
From one act of disobedience we started pouring
Until we found that we were just an empty shell
Just and empty canvas
Doomed to hell
That’s when Jesus came in
He showed us we did not have to try to patch ourselves up
But instead gave us a whole new skin
Filled with a new Spirit
Now the smoke still oppresses us
But we don’t care
We are His wineskins
Everything else does not seem to matter
We were just the wineskins in the smoke
Now we are His wineskins
Now we have a purpose for our lives in the midst of smoke
We can help other empty skins see that
They can come to Him
And get also filled
Get a whole new outlook
Now we all are waiting
Until the day we meet the maker of our skins
And spend eternity with Him
