Lyrics
[VERSE 1]
Are free-willers brothers?
That’s the question on my screen,
Scrolling through the noise again,
Everybody picking teams.
Some folks draw their battle lines,
Pushin’ fences way too high,
But I’ve seen grace come through the cracks
In hearts they said were dry.
[PRE-CHORUS]
Yeah, everybody’s different,
Everybody’s led their own way in.
Some can tell the whole Gospel clean,
Some just whisper what they mean.
[CHORUS]
If you’re resting in Christ alone,
Not in something you’ve done or shown,
Then brother, that’s enough for me
That’s enough for me.
I won’t shut the door so fast,
On someone clinging to grace at last.
If the faith they claim is real and true,
I’ll call ’em brother too.
[VERSE 2]
I remember when my son was baptized,
No hoops he had to jump through,
Just, “Are you trusting Christ alone
For all He’s promised to do?”
No checklist hanging over him,
No doctrine quiz to start
Just a simple, honest faith
Spoken from the heart.
[PRE-CHORUS]
Some say “free will,” but when you ask
What they’re leaning their hope upon,
They’ll say “Christ alone - His righteousness,”
And brother, that’s the song.
[CHORUS]
If you’re resting in Christ alone,
Not in something you’ve done or shown,
Then brother, that’s enough for me
That’s enough for me.
I won’t shut the door so fast,
On someone clinging to grace at last.
If the faith they claim is real and true,
I’ll call ’em brother too.
[BRIDGE]
Yeah, some folks fight the doctrines,
Push against election’s call,
But sometimes they’re just wandering
With their back against the wall.
So I won’t chase the arguments,
Or polish every scar
We’ve got the truth, the brass ring,
Let’s remember who we are.
[CHORUS]
If you’re resting in Christ alone,
Not in something you’ve done or shown,
Then brother, that’s enough for me
That’s enough for me.
Let’s love the ones who come in faith,
Let the lesser things fall away,
’Cause grace is bigger than our tribe
And love’s the thing that stays.
[OUTRO]
Yeah, love’s the thing that stays…
Love’s the thing that stays.
