Take Off All My Sin

from 4​-​track Songs 2008 by Jonni Greth

/

lyrics

You know I'd love to hold you
Forever and ever, amen
I'd stand knockin' on your doorstep
And you'd let me in
And I'd finally take off all my sin

If I was a different way
If you were a different way
If the sun shone different rays
Then it might work out one day

In you I would be growing
Your light would shine from my face
I'd show you how to calm down
You'd teach me to work all day
I'd come weary and heavy laden
And we'd both find rest in grace

If I was a different way
If you were a different way
If the sun shone different rays
Then it might work out one day

Yes, I would love some children
And they'd love God their father
And they'd always listen
To their Holy Mother
If our son were grief-stricken
He'd die on this side and come out the other

If I were a different way
If you were a different way
If home was a safer place
Then it might work out one day

But if I was a different way
If you were a different way
If the world was a different place
It just wouldn't be the same
