If you were to ask me
To make my estimation
Of the level of spiritual awakenness
In this nation
Then I'd have to use my
"Religious Calculations",
Which is
Knowledge of God addition
Recognition of the Holy Spirit subtraction
Attendance in church multiplication
But, Application of scriptures division
Weighing out all the elements of that equation
According to my calculations
I'd give us a...
Lazy
Hear me out
This is not me
Trying to scream at the bleachers
This is literally
The preacher preaching to the preacher
So let me be the first one in line
With my hand up in the air
Saying
God
Reveal to me the areas where my heart
Just doesn't care
And strip me of my idols
Until I completely lay bare
Then break my at my knees
So that my loyalty is clear
You see out of obedience
Everytime that I sit down to write
I ask the Spirit to speak
As I put paper to pen
Which means that
When He speaks
I must follow His lead
Even if that means calling sin a sin
And so my goal tonight
Is to serve
Like the siren on an ambulance
Speeding through the streets
To the scene of the accident
Reminding every here
That your focus can't relent
Hoping that this call
Doesnt fall
On indifference
Indifference
Maybe it is that
We just dont care
So allow me
To take this oppurtunity
To preach to the choir
In the image of the Trium God
Every one of us was made
Praise be to God
And anything that our minds can comprehend
Through His strength He sustains
Praise be to God
And out of His loving kindness
He has called some of us to call upom His name
Praise be to God
And for those that call upon His name
Because He is rich in mercy
He says
Praise be to God
Salvation was paid for
Because Jesus Christ endured the grave
Praise be to God
And proven that pain He tamed
On the third day
When He was raised
Praise be to God
And Jesus Christ
Now sits in throne
At the right hand of the Father
And He will forever reign
Praise be to God
And one day
One day
Our King will return for His own
OH GLORIOUS DAY!
Praise be to God
So you tell me
How can we stand face to face
With the King of kings
And be indifferent
