"That Sinner" by JAWorley

I wrote this as a song, but songs often count as poetry.

I’m that sinner,
The one from the garden they speak of,
Doing that which is wrong,
Although I know what is right

I’m that sinner,
That God tried to warn,
The one that didn’t listen,
The one that is cursed

I’m that sinner,
The same self-righteous one every day,
Thinking only of myself,
For this the price I will pay

I’m that sinner,
Yes you know the one,
The one Jesus died for,
So I could be right with God

I’m that sinner,
The one who is now free,
Free of my debt,
Because God wanted me to be
