So I'm here laying in bed
Trying to get these rhymes out of my head
Suddenly inspired by the Holy fire
Got a few things that I feel convicted to say
Not gonna get rest till He has His way
Never thought words could come this
Maybe It'll only be heard like this.
stop trying to save face
just look to his amazing grace
no more pride
stop trying to hide
cuz deep inside
We're all deprived
The steeple is place for broken people
To come cry to the Living God
To turn away from all the idol frauds
To worship the great Physician
But now we worship the music and musicians
The church is spinning out of control
Our faith thrown to and fro
In debt we're spending more than we can get
The market temple that He drove out
We raised back up because of doubt
Twisting the will of our Heavenly Father
The way we are going our souls will be slaughtered
In the congregational worship
It ain't no worship
Dead souls sitting in pews
Live souls barely getting through
We're getting abused
Using comfort as an excuse
We could so much more if we actually KNEW
Who we were living for!
The banner in our hall says it all
a house of prayer for all the nations
Except we only got one nation in here
Don't even get me started on prayer
is it cuz we fear too much?
We're Markham Chinese Baptist Church
But I don't see Jesus discriminating
So why are we so hating?
Back in the day all the believers did was meet together to pray
Every single day
What happened to that?
Where did things go whack?
Prayer meetings keep getting reduced
There is no excuse
This ain't no church
Its a social convention
Disguised in the name of Heaven
As a church we're a disgrace
before God we should have no face
But thank Him for His amazing grace.
So I pray that you change these heart of stone to hearts of flesh
hearts of stone to hearts of flesh
hearts of stone to hearts of flesh
hearts of stone to hearts of flesh
YES YES YES
Only you can change
Rearrange a revival in Jesus' name
We have no rights
but He's given us the right
so come stand up and fight
Take back the temple that is rightfully yours
Bought by the blood of Jesus our Lord
WORSHIP UNASHAMED
FOR THE GLORY OF JESUS NAME!
FOR HE ALREADY REIGNS!
and please don't get me wrong I'm doing this in love
Cuz I want you to truly experience HIS love
(Just some thoughts that have been on my head for while. Tell me what you think. It wasn't divinely given or anything just to clear that up. It sorta just worked with the whole rhyming thing that I had going >.<)
