"Church History"

We all have a history of hurts
Broken bonds of brotherhood
And what's worse
Is we were promised penitence
And left there in a hearse
Better off not going in the first

Standing, sitting
Kneeling, singing hymns
Praying, staying
In the same place that we've been
Standing, sitting
Kneeling, singing hymns
Has it ever been for Him?

We all have a history with church
Either seeing or receiving
Face to face or in a blur
And we've heard of the hypocrisies
We've lived them out as well
We've felt hell while skies are winding in reverse

Standing, sitting
Kneeling, singing hymns
Praying, staying
In the same place that we've been
Standing, sitting
Kneeling, singing hymns
Has it ever been for Him?

Our devices desecrate it all
There's no sanctuary
When there's demons in the walls
So lift your hands
And cleanse your palms
From the past
And every pastor who was false
The Good Shepherd knows your heart
