So You Say

[Christsfreeservant]

So you say you go to church
Fellowship you do not search
Walking with Christ not your thing
Offerings to Christ not bring

Live your life the way you want
Though religion you do flaunt
Follow idols, that’s your gig
True commitments, not so big

Selfishness it rules your life
Sinful practices, they are rife
Wasting time on what’s just trash
Not consider God to ask

Hypocrite, that’s who you are
You will not get very far
Time is ticking, going by
While your sins from God you hide

He’s not blinded to your plight
Knows you’ve given up the fight
Knows you’ve given into sin
Knows you’re losing, not to win

If surrender to Him do
He’ll forgive you, through and through,
Give you new life to begin
If you give up all for Him

“You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy of you, when he said: ‘This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far from me; in vain do they worship me, teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’” Matthew 15:7-9 ESV
