In colored glass the prisons In windows on the wall Saints look uo to heaven Jesus looks so tall Piercing eyes look into hearts Convicting, calling... all. Weeping through the window Shifting up the wall The sun approaches painted hills Sun setting leaves a pall.
All the congregation Modern in the light They follow "the Savior" Thinking they're "upright"
Position, proposition, Privilege in their pores Matriarchs & patriarchs Always wanting more.
The Saviour dies a pauper Assigned to pour red gusts Put in a rich man's private tomb To turn to maroon dust
Now, O, hail the Pastor! His preaching & his price! He gathers up the windblown tithes To practice every vice.... He's the one they come to To give His Glorious advice?
The Mesusa in Their membranes Giving Themselves airs They turn us all to colored glass Snakes writhe in Their hair But batten down the Bible WE AREN'T THAT UNAWARE.
The Saints look up so pious Jesus scans the pews He sees ALL the "Pastors" He sees me & you He's looks down so sadly
