I Hate ...
I hate, yeah I do, and I won't say I'm sorry ...
I Hate
[Verse 1]
I hate, yeah I do, and I won't say I'm sorry
That's just who I am, carved deep in my story
Sue said I ain't the boy from high school days
Jimbo, Lynne, they called me hateful in so many ways
Helen turned away when she heard my stand
Classmates shake their heads, say I ain't the man
They knew back then, top of the class so bright
Now they call me stupid, lost in the night
[Chorus]
But if you love the Lord, you gotta hate the evil
Psalm 97:10, it's written in the Bible
I hate the docs who butcher young souls like Chloe Cole
Killin' unborn babies, stealin' futures whole
Traffickers hidin' behind the border line
Sellin' women and kids to the darkest kind
Deadly drugs floodin' in, takin' lives away
I hate the sin, the evil, every single day
[Verse 2]
I don't hate the people, Lord knows I pray for 'em
Their souls in the balance, I beg Him to save 'em
But their actions, their policies, institutional wrong
Evil wrapped in professions, singin' the devil's song
Surprised you don't feel it, that fire in your chest
Sue, Jimbo, Lynne, put your faith to the test
It tells me 'bout you, where your heart truly lies
In this world gone astray, under darkened skies
[Chorus]
If you love the Lord, you gotta hate the evil
Psalm 97:10, it's ringin' like a steeple
I hate the docs who butcher young souls like Chloe Cole
Killin' unborn babies, stealin' futures whole
Traffickers hidin' behind the border line
Sellin' women and kids to the darkest kind
Deadly drugs floodin' in, takin' lives away
I hate the sin, the evil, come what may
[Bridge]
I'll pray for your souls, your kids and their tomorrows
God bless you all, through joys and through sorrows
Yeah, I hate, but it's righteous, it's true
If you love Him like I do, you'd hate it too
[Outro]
I hate, yeah I do, and I won't apologize
God bless each one, under these country skies
______________________________________________
Let those who love the Lord hate evil,
for he guards the lives of his faithful ones
and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
