“Deficient Grace”

Verse 1:Total Depravity Terminated

On neutral ground, I’ll make my choice
Detached from death in sin
Able to see iniquity
And will myself to him


Verse 2:Unconditional Election Conditioned

Twas grace that made me savable
But did not make it sure
It took my will to make it real
And it may not endure


Verse 3:Limited Atonement Limited

The blood he shed, he shed for all
A mere symbol of his love
Held no real pow’r in of itself
Just vain hope from above


Verse 4:Irresistible Grace Resisted

This god is but a gentleman
Not wanting to intrude
We have rejected o’er and o’er
While he, for us, has wooed


Verse 5: Perseverance of the Saints Perished

I willed myself to be redeemed
On one of my smarter days
So if I sin badly enough
I’ll probably fall away

or

Alternate Verse 5:

Though he’s big enough to justify
And holds all things in his hand
I’m strong enough to leave his grip
And thwart his pseudo-plan (more)
