Lord, they really think they foolin' you |
|
By comin' to church on |
|
SundayPrayin' and layin' hands on folks |
|
Stompin' and jumpin' around, fakin' the |
|
Holy Ghost |
|
But it's a thin line between walkin' it and talkin' it |
|
And livin' it and givin' it or just pretendin' it's alright |
|
And did they really think that they could |
|
Pull the wool over your eyes? |
|
Lord, did they really think that by fakin' they were saved |
|
That they would get the same reward? |
|
This be the realest thing |
|
I ever wrote for sure |
|
And after this a lot of folks won't like me no more |
|
But after this |
|
I gotta go answer to you, |
|
LordSo I've made up my mind, |
|
I'ma go to church on |
|
SundayAnd sing a song that may hurt somebody's feelings |
|
So that maybe thy will, will be done |
|
On Earth as it is in |
|
Heaven and |
|
I hopefully they will see |
|
How much they really be discouragin' a little old sinner like me |
|
And Lord who they think they jivin' |
|
By singin' these songs full of glory? |
|
Then out in the world it's a different story |
|
I'm runnin' out of people to pray for me |
|
And I'm not tryin' to act like |
|
I'm the perfect man |
|
But if you speak about it, you should be about it |
|
Not just preach about it all day, 'cause if you do you run the risk |
|
Of chasin' some of the most beautiful people away |
|
And it is never my intention to discourage you |
|
Rather encourage you to change your life today |
|
This be the realest thing |
|
I ever have to say |
|
And after this a lot of folks won't like me no more |
|
But after this |
|
I gotta go answer to you, |
|
LordSo I've made up my mind, |
|
