From the recording Bold Enough To Say (2014)
The honky-tonk swing of "Forgive Us Our Sins as We Forgive Those Who Sin Against Us" is a refreshing shift, and further showcases your remarkable range. Here the lightness and humor belie a deep take on dharmic accountability and the imperative of compassion, all framed with such positive energy that one of Christianity's most challenging and revolutionary, essential concepts seems almost effortless. Hidden in the lyrics is the gem of your own avowed self-realization: "Now I'm the coach" - indeed. - Ethan

Lyrics
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who turn and then sin against us ‘cause life is a path to happiness for yourself and the rest of the bus
Everyone trips every now and again most of us are doing our best every man wants a little piece of your life every woman wants the rest
So give me three Hail Mary’s while you’re clutching your rosaries you’re just a zygote, baby, in my spiritual ovaries there’s a new day dawning...wake up! wake up! It’s a beautiful morning and the sun’s just coming up
Sunshine on the rest of my life when I go to bed with love in my heart Sunshine on the rest of my life ‘cause I know I’m gonna get a fresh start
Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin on every inch of our lives forgive us our sins as we forgive those who covet every inch of our wives
there was a time when I thought I could be above an kind of reproach there was a time when I sat on the bench but player, baby now I’m the coach
(chorus)
There was a time I thought that sin was a permanent state of the mind emphatically static and overdramatically leaving it all behind
I’ll give you three Hail Mary’s while I’m clutching my rosaries I’m a zygote baby, in your spiritual ovaries there’s a new day dawning...wake up! wake up! It’s a beautiful morning and the sun’s just coming up
Sunshine on the rest of my life when I go to bed with love in my heart Sunshine on the rest of my life ‘cause I know I’m gonna get a fresh start
