Lyrics
I love the colors of black and white
I know the difference between wrong and right
Ah, these words, oh these words, they speak to me
There are no gray lines in this life
I can see through the darkness with this light
These words, oh these words, they warm my soul
It's only rhema
It's my choice to understand
It's only rhema
It's my right to lend a hand
It's my will to live by the meaning within
And find all ways to eliminate sin
There's no disclaimer, it's only rhema
Time has passed yet these words still live
We're blessed to know what these words can give
Oh this message, oh this message, is so clear
So I'll read them over and over again
Wherever I am, whatever shape I'm in
Oh these words have more power than gold
And somehow they keep me, under control
It's only rhema, it's my choice to understand
It's only rhema, it's my right to lend a hand
It's my right to live by the meaning within
And find all ways to eliminate sin
There's no disclaimer, it's only rhema
It's only rhema
Only rhema
