Zealot

[Verse 1]
I let all my searching lead me, I confess
And the more I pried, the more I neared the edge
Can a man enter the womb again, I ask
Can a zealot embrace humanness?

[Verse 2]
I was leaching on the confidence of man
While I separated righteousness from sin
I was preaching but my heart was wearing thin
Can a zealot become human?

[Chorus]
Understand me, I've never had a rebel's heart
But they say pressure only shows you who you are
And besides, it was my Friend upon the Cross
And I felt His rejection
If I turned, I'd be lost

[Verse 3]
Now I'm bleeding for a faith I've never seen
But the fear that held me is finally loosening
I will leave it, and let my conscience make amends
So a zealot becomes human

[Chorus]
Understand me, I've never had a rebel's heart
But they say pressure only shows you who you are
And besides, it was my Friend upon the Cross
And I felt His rejection
If I turned, I'd be lost

[Bridge]
Now finally, a Voice came rushing through the walls
"Love freely, it's what makes you what you are"
Then the pride, it fell like ashes from the fire
And I knelt there
Born
Born, reborn
