Oil (Band) - Chopping Block

Copied!edit Lyrics

★ verse 1 ★
I've been left behind in the middle of the wrath of god
The age of grace has ended and the saints have all ascended to heaven

★ chorus 1 ★
(i confess) he is god (i confess) christ is lord
(speak the truth) i won't deny
I guess i'll have to die
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny

★ verse 2 ★
Why was i so blind and offended by the cross of christ?
The man of sin exalts himself, will you believe in the lie?

★ chorus 1 ★
(i confess) he is god (i confess) christ is lord
(speak the truth) i won't deny
I guess i'll have to die
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny (bring it! ★

★ bridge ★
(spoken) "and i saw the souls of them that were beheaded
For the witness of jesus, and for the word of god
And which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image
Neither had received his mark upon their foreheads
Or in their hands, and they lived and reigned with christ
A thousand years, so it is written, so it shall be done"

★ verse 3 ★
Now the line of life is short: one by one, their blood is spilled
My time on earth has ended, though my life is just beginning through jesus

★ chorus 2 ★
(i confess) he is god (i confess) christ is lord
(speak the truth) i won't deny
I guess i'll have to die
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny
Bring on the chopping block
No, i won't deny, no!
Bring it!
