I journeyed through the darkness
With Christ as my guiding light
Envy overtook them
They tried to take away my Christ

I can tell you they failed
For nothing can shake my faith
Simply knowing His name always saves
Now they epitomize self-obliteration

So sing for me a new song
A song of love and peace
Joyfully bringing together
The lives chosen for the feast

Christ has gone out looking
For the rejected, lost, and lame
Undeserved of this very gift
But invited to the wedding feast all the same

You heard the parable
Now it is a prophecy
