lyrics

Do you want to know what I see
When I pray and I bow on my knees?
A grand design a master plan
There’s a sea of broken people
An empty church and a crooked steeple
They say I’m a fool
If I say He’s going to save me
Well you say all the world has
Rejected truth and all that God has
Set aside for us to be
And if I am his reflection
With all my imperfections
Well I can’t call myself
Anything but just forgiven
Pray with me one more time tonight
Pray we’ll be walking in the light of love
And if you say that Jesus is alive
Then he’s walking right there by your side
Then why do you ask WWJD?
I want to take the walls of the church
Knock them down and build a bridge across
The valley we created
Our religion crucified Him
Pray with me one more time tonight
Pray we’ll be walking in the light of love
Pray that we’re not the ones to judge
Pray with me one more time tonight
A witness is something you are
Not something you do
And if you are following Jesus then
You’re in full-time ministry too
The gospel is NOT the story of Jesus
It’s Jesus Himself
I’m always on a missions trip
And Jesus plus nothing equals everything
