Chorus

when we don´t get what we deserve that´s a real good thing

when we get what we don´t deserve

that´s a real good thing

born to sin

and then get caught

all our good deeds

don´t mean squat

sell the Volvo

shred the Visa

send the cash to Ma Theresa

great idea

the only catch is

you don´t get saved

on merit badges

Chorus

doctor´s coming

looking grim

"Do you have a favorite hymn?"

check your balance through the years

all accounts are in arrears

guilt is bitter

grace is sweet

park it here

on the mercy seat

Chorus
