'Sanctified', by Johnny Cash
by noteworthy at 5:27 am EDT, Aug 11, 2006

Today I'm bringing you two topically minded songs from the master. This is the first of two; both were released earlier this year on "Personal File" (which was previously recommended here).

(Have a little drink) No thank you brother
(Wanna get rich) Don't need it brother
(Wanna fool around) No thank you sister
Ain't you heard that that old evil man within me died
(Let's have a party) I ain't goin'
(Well watcha gonna do) Gonna keep prayin'
And keep workin' out my salvation, tryin' to get sanctified

No more condemnation, repented
Jesus brought salvation, He saved me
Justification brought me safely to His side
And as I get to know Him more
He gives me a taste of the comin' glory
And I'm tryin' to whip the devil, I'm tryin' to get sanctified

Sanctified, sanctified
I'm workin' to whip the devil
I'm tryin' to get sanctified

(Don't go to church) Yes I'm goin
(Why do you read that old Bible) 'Cause I like it
(Well I don't believe in God) Well God bless you
You ain't got no argument for what I feel inside
(Aw have a little fun) That's what I'm havin'
(Life's passin you by) I can hardly wait
Well I got my mind set upon eternity, tryin' to get sanctified

And there's no more condemnation, I repented
Jesus brought salvation, He saved me
Justification brought me safely to His side
And as I get to know Him more
He gives me a taste of the comin' glory
And I'm tryin' to whip the devil, tryin' to get sanctified

Sanctified, sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
Yes I'm tryin' to whip the devil
I'm tryin' to get sanctified

Sanctified, sanctified
Sanctified, sanctified
I'm workin' out my salvation
Tryin' to get sanctified
Sanctified

He sings this song with such conviction!
