I Felt Sad in Church Today Songtext

von Joanne Hogg

O Lord I felt sad in church today
The praises that we sang to You
Where was the heart where was the soul
They seem so weary and so old
How could they bless Your faithful heart, oh, God

It's not so much the words or tunes we sing
It's more the attitude within
We want to hurry praise away
When we've got plans made for the day
Or we just can't face the truth about ourselves

You're the high King of heaven
Did we grieve Your heart dear friend
Nothing less than my best is good enough
So make a joyful noise to heaven
And sing with all my heart and soul
Don't notice if You stay or if You leave

O, Lord, did You feel sad in church today
And did we grieve Your heart different
We think we have You figured out
We know what church is all about
And we don't notice if You come or if You leave

O breathe Your life into us now
Burn our religious pride away
Until we fall down on our knees
And say

You're the high King of heaven
You deserve the highest praise
Nothing less than my best is good enough
Make a joyful noise to heaven
Sing with all my heart and soul
I am sure this is what I've been called to do

O, Lord, how did You feel in church today
Oh, how did You feel in church today
