Creed

Listen now!

This is important!

I called to Adonai in my distress, and he answered me.

[Verse 1]  

I rode out from the valley of lies,  

Tongues like daggers, peace despised.  

But I kept my soul like a flint-struck flame,  

And whispered truth in Adonai’s name.

[Chorus]  

My name is Creed

I am for peace, though war surrounds,  

My horse walks firm on sacred ground.  

With Marcus in my saddle roll,  

And Psalm 120 in my soul.

And Psalm 120 in my soul.

[Verse 2]  

Epictetus taught me this:  

Chains can’t bind a man who resists.  

Not with anger, not with pride—  

But with the strength to turn inside.

[Bridge]  

They cursed me with deceitful breath,  

But I did not fear their threats of death.  

For what they own, I do not crave—  

I ride with freedom past the grave.

[Chorus]  

My name is Creed

I am for peace, though war surrounds,  

My horse walks firm on sacred ground.  

With Marcus in my saddle roll,  

And Psalm 120 in my soul.

And Psalm 120 in my soul.

[Verse 3]  

The stars above, they do not lie,  

They mark the trail where truth won’t die.  

And when I speak, though they draw swords,  

I answer not with wrath, but words.

[Outro]  

So if you find me on the plain,  

Know I’ve walked through fire and rain.  

I ride for mercy, not for fame—  

A cowboy carved from truth and flame.

Listen now!

This is important!

I called to Adonai in my distress, and he answered me.
