Billie Holiday on the radio
  my sluggish heart is beating seven beats too slow
  another sad song and another shot of blue
  cold and unconcerned are anything but new
  He said "Love endures all things"
  and it hurts to think He's right
  If I mark the span of failure
  is his burden just as light?
  
  [Chorus:]
  I am, Spartan
  close my heart so tight
  Jesus
  Save me
  from myself tonight
  
  Limping through the world
  there's a knowing look or two
  is it just the cripples here
  who understand the truth?
  Why is love so painful
  why do we always lose
  paving pathways for the lost
  the bitter, and recluse?
  He said "Love endures all things"
  and it hurts to think it's true
  did it nail Him on a cross
  did it crucify Him too?
  
  The angels are singing over the plains
  the shepherds are quaking, echoing refrains
  And all of our slogans designed to take away the pain
  meant nothing to the Son of God that night in Bethlehem
