Ain't No Man Righteous

When a man he serves the Lord, it makes his life worthwhile

It don′t matter 'bout his position, it don′t matter 'bout his lifestyle

Talk about perfection, I ain't never seen none

And there ain′t no man righteous, no not one

Sometimes the devil likes to drive you from the neighborhood

He′ll even work his ways through those whose intentions are good

Some like to worship on the Moon, others are worshipping the Sun

And there ain't no man righteous, no not one

Look around, ya see so many social hypocrites

Like to make rules for others while they do just the opposite

You can′t get to glory by the raising and the lowering of no flag

Put your goodness next to God's and it comes out like a filthy rag

In a city of darkness there′s no need of the Sun

And there ain't no man righteous, no not one

Done so many evil things in the name of love, it′s a crying shame

I never did see no fire that could put out a flame

Pull your hat down, baby, pull the wool down over your eyes

Keep a-talking, baby, till you run right out of alibis

Someday you'll account for all the deeds that you done

Well, there ain′t no man righteous, no not one

God got the power, man has got his vanity

Man gotta choose before God can set him free

Don′t you know there's nothing new that′s under the Sun?

Well, there ain't no man righteous, no not one

When I′m gone don't wonder where I be

Just say that I trusted in God and that Christ was in me

Say He defeated the devil, He was God′s chosen Son

And that there ain't no man righteous, no not one
