We're Not the Men We Thought We Were

Cross the street and just take a look
you see a boy touching a girl without remorse
You see a man laughing at his own wife
Now tell me after seeing this
What's your conclusion?
What's your veredict?

You see little boys with muscles and biceps
You see teenagers with bottles and videogames
playing being the man with his mates
You see man running away from responsabilities
leaving his wife in a very dark night
Now tell me
What's your conclusion?

I thought Christianity
was a fairy tale told by a coward
who never defended Himself
But now I see
it takes guts to live the life He lived
It takes courage to die willingly
for just saying things that were true

And the conclusion is this my dear son
We're Not the Men We Thought We Were
It breaks my pride when I realize
We're Not the Men We Thought We Were

Now you see women
dedicating their lives to Him
Now you see teenagers rejecting dates
to love Him in an absolute way
Now you see divorced women smiling
saying they finally found a true husband
that no man can even compare to her Jesus

And it's true
When you read His life
His hands never defiled any woman He knew
And it's true
When you see His life
His eyes never fell to lust to any woman
He ministered throughout His entire life

When I see His courage to defend the scorned women
I can tell you with tears in my eyes
We're Not the Men We Thought We Were
Let's be honest my dear son
We're Not the Men We Thought We Were

Praise God, He is so worthy!
