We don't graduate from the gospel

We don't graduate from the gospel

by Joel Howard

We don't stop needing water

We don't get over love

We don't ever stop receiving 

each gift from God above

We can't maintain life on our own

We never stop needing our brothers

to carry us when we're fighting 

We never stop needing each other

Good news never stops being relevant

We never climb over its goodness

We can't live without His presence

We're never exempt from obedience

We don't outrun our Father

We never start earning His presence

We die every time we resist Him

And live each time we turn to Him

Our Home never loses its safety

Leaning on Him is the way He made me

We will keep on going astray until

We know we never graduate from the gospel
