If You Knew My Savior, You Would Understand My Behavior

By Pastor Michael Brigmond

 

Some say I’m a stick in the mud

    They think I never have much fun.

They can’t seem to understand

    Why I wear long sleeves even in the sun.

 

I tell them, "If you knew my Savior,

    You would understand my behavior."

It's knowing Him as I do

    That makes my faith not waiver.

 

They shake their heads in unbelief

    When they learn I live without TV

But I don’t need Talmud-Vision

    To keep me up to speed.

 

I have a Bible that’s alive

    It’s always current and full of truth

I don’t need Hollywood perverts

    Who only want to destroy our youth.

 

They see my wife with hair uncut

    And a face that’s clean and bright

They see her dressed in modesty

    Every day and every night.

 

And so they wonder what makes me tick

    And why I cease not my labor

I smile and say, If you knew my Savior,

    You would understand my behavior.
