I wonder why it’s taken me
So long to see the truth
That while The Lord’s been pruning me
I’ve acted all aloof
Now it’s time for surgery
A great big manky root
Must be removed from deep inside
To make way for my fruit.
It’s taken years for me to reach
The point of no return
I’ve reached the stage, despite my age
Obedience I must learn
Into the hands of counsellers
I yield my deepest friends
A thorough clean is what I need
To make all my amends.
