..I'm willing to submit to
and walk in fellowship with anyone through whom I hear the voice of the
Savior.

are you sure?
<<Go ahead and talk about him
because he makes you doubt,
Because he has denied himself the things
that you can't live without.
Laugh at him behind his back just like
the others do,
Remind him of what he used to be when he comes walkin'
through.
He's the _property of Jesus_
Resent him to the
bone
You got something better
You've got a heart of
stone
Stop your conversation when he passes on the
street,
Hope he falls upon himself, oh, won't that be
sweet
Because he can't be exploited by superstition
anymore
Because he can't be bribed or bought by the things that you
adore.
He's the property of Jesus
Resent him to the
bone
You got something better
You've got a heart of
stone
When the whip that's keeping you in line doesn't make him
jump,
Say he's hard-of-hearin', say that he's a chump.
Say he's
out of step with reality as you try to test his nerve
Because he
doesn't pay no tribute to the king that you serve.
He's the
property of Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something
better
You've got a heart of stone
Say that he's a loser
'cause he got no common sense
Because he don't increase his worth at
someone else's expense.
Because he's not afraid of trying, 'cause he
don't look at you and smile,
'Cause he doesn't tell you jokes or
fairy tales, say he's got no style.
He's the property of
Jesus
Resent him to the bone
You got something better
You've
got a heart of stone
You can laugh at salvation, you can play
Olympic games,
You think that when you rest at last you'll go back
from where you came.
But you've picked up quite a story and you've
changed since the womb.
What happened to the real you, you've been
captured but by whom?
He's the property of Jesus
Resent him to
the bone
You got something better
You've got a heart of stone
