Should I add to the Rod
The pain my Saviour bore
Should I add to the Rod
And hurt Him all the more?
Should I add to the Rood
The law, my works, my deeds
Should I add to the Rood
Is this what my Saviour needs?
Should I add to the Tree
To justify myself
Should I add to the Tree
Is not the Cross my wealth?
No, I will not add to the Stake
Let others fall from grace
I will not add to the Stake
I will not hinder my race!
'Christ has become of no effect unto you,
whosoever of you are justified by the law;
ye are fallen from grace.'
Galatians 5: 4
