In the line of Lamech

 Seventh from Adam,Lamech made mistakes 

Guilty, did he really reach heaven 
Redeem the curse of Cain, insolence or insane 
No wonder he's seeking seventy-seven 

Adam carried on, God granted them a son 
From there folks began to call His Name 
We can choose Seth's line, calling Jesus mine 
Or continue courting grudge as a game 

What happens in a grudge match, one party dies 
Makes sense to avoid courting Cain 
If you've made mistakes, forgive is all it takes 
Jesus says, "just forgive again"

Adam carried on, God granted them a son 
From there folks began to call His Name 
We can choose Seth's line, calling Jesus mine 
Or continue courting grudge as a game 

Adam carried on, God granted them a son 
From there folks began to call His Name 
We can choose Seth's line, calling Jesus mine 
Or continue courting grudge as a game.

Genesis 4:23-26
Lamech said to his wives,
“Adah and Zillah, listen to me;
wives of Lamech, hear my words.
I have killed a man for wounding me,
a young man for injuring me.
If Cain is avenged seven times,
then Lamech seventy-seven times. ”
Adam made love to his wife again, and she gave birth to a son and named him Seth, saying, “God has granted me another child in place of Abel, since Cain killed him.” Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh.
At that time people began to call on the name of the LORD.

Matthew 18:21-22
The Parable of the Unmerciful Servant
Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”
Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.
