Shai Linne, Blair Linne - Light and Heat lyrics
[Shai Linne, Blair Linne - Light and Heat lyrics]
That will lead you to adore
The Lord in His sovereignty
But, if I can speak honestly
Some Sundays we walk to the temple of worship
Forgetting that we should already be
A temple of worship
That before we make it to church
Your glorious praises should surge
In us first
Too busy trying to steal glory in Your chapel
That it's no wonder why we're shackled
Cause we're only concerned with Adams apple
Vocal chords
Rather than if hearts are open to the Lord
But these hymns hummed in the dopest chords
Are babbling tongues groping for awards
Lord you deserve an apology for
Our lack of doxology
Lord you deserve an apology for
Our lack of doxology
Because our theology shows that
We are wounded sheep
Hunted by a cutthroat world dressed
Like a brute beast
A little fox, a little yeast
Trying to snuff out the love we
Have for our High Priest our Bridegroom
Some tell us to run around
Our pews like a typhoon
Replacing truth-filled tunes
With emotionalism coaxing people to praise
Get up on your feet
Otherwise "Y'all must not be saved"
Rather than get excited about You
Hearts often leap
Once they tell us it's our season to reap-
Even though they say it every week
They season services with lies the truth is
Every season is God's season guys
But we run to the other extreme too
And adopt a stoic supreme view
By saying we should be still, afraid to feel
Remove all keys, drums and steel
So our praise is filled with joy kill
Like Golgotha is where the story ends
You get more rowdy when your sports team wins
Its like worship wars amongst
Different body limbs
But lets place our attention on the
One who atoned for sins
In order to bring us back
In fellowship with Him
See we are filled with the Holy Spirit
Once we've been reborn
We all should lay prostrate
Affected to the core changed
Hearts softened by Your mercy
Isaiah 6, we're dirty, but You're worthy
Lord we're thirsty for Your uncommonness
Turn our attention away from worthless things
Since doxology is the giving of glory rightly
Psalm 63: 4 all day and night, we
Extend praise, hearts ablaze, hands raised
Standing amazed at the One who is Almighty
Forgive us Lord, for lessening Your worth
Help us to glory in our Redeemer
Signed, Your universal church
