Analysis of I Am Disinclined to Acquiesce



I never will agree with those
Who say that Jesus never rose
On that first Easter day!

The Bible says He died for all
Because each one of us did fall
From grace along the way!

Who else could pay the penalty
For sins of everyone and me,
Unless He was divine?

We never will deserve such love,
The kind that He was thinking of
When He paid every fine!
