This is my song for July... The idea for it came from a discussion in Bible Study on the book of Romans. The question came up about isn't believing in Jesus a work? The thought hit me that while believing in Christ's forgiveness is surely a gift that I can't and don't earn by work living daily based on that gift is work. I seem to recall someone in the course of the discussion off-handedly saying, "Working hard or Hardly working?" and this seemed like an interesting hook for a song.
Hey, Martin, James Called
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
How can both be true?
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
I have been made new...
I've got my nose pinned to the grindstone
My shoulder to the wheel
My pedal to the metal
So my tires start to squeal
My fingers working to the bone
My feet and ankles too
You'll never hear me say that
I don't have a thing to do
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
How can both be true
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
I have been made new
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
How can both be so
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
Jesus loves me this I know
I'm working hard and Hardly Working
Jesus love me this I know.
