You say you love the Lord
And want him in your life
You say you need a true friend
To comfort you at night
You said the Lord saved you and
Fill you with the Holy Ghost
You never stop lying
Running from coast to coast
Stop pretending you are doing
Right if it's not in your heart
Stop saying you are holy
When you don’t love the Lord
  
You go to church on Sunday
Because it is a tradition
Serving the Lord everyday
Is always the main issue
It seems to be in your mind
And not in your heart
You are playing your script just right:
Down to the very last part
  
When you stand before the Lord
On that great getting up day
If you didn't live your life right
What do you think he will say?
Do what the Lord ask you
Right down to the very last part
Stop living church in your mind;
And start living it in your heart.
