This is God and...

            
I see you straddling the fence
            
I see you with one foot in the stream
            
I see you calling me your Master
            
With the attitude of what's in it for me

I see you praise only when there's blessing
I see you with no mark upon your knees
I see you turning from your brother
When your brother is desperately in need

            
I see the dust that's on your Bible
            
I see you yawning in the pew
             
I see you passing judgment on my people
             
When your attitude is what is judging you

This is how the world views you as Christians
This is how you represent my name
How can you expect a dying world to listen
When they look at you and then themselves
*
And you appear to be one and the same
