BJ Stewart Band - These Walls Lyrics
Official




I won't stop to look at his cardboard sign
I won't read what he has to say, and he can't read my mind
But I must quickly decide how much this guy is worth
'Cause it's Sunday morning and I don't want to be late for church
Well we spent a fortune on new stained glass windows
Our new facility is quite a sight to behold
And we just opened up a new location
We are proud of our franchise, do you think your town would like one
What are we doing and why are we here
Who are we trying to impress
We set attendance records this year
And our people are the best dressed
Our sound and lighting are state of the art
I'm glad we're doing our part
We've got it going on inside these walls
Our beautiful baptistry is never filled
But think how much we're saving on our water bill
Our building campaign won't allow us to reach out to the least of these
But still we can pay all these six figure salaries
Please don't get dirt on our carpet, you might leave a stain
If the music is not to your liking, feel free to complain
But would Jesus be welcome in your church today
Or would He overturn tables that get in His way
What are we doing and why are we here
Are we all about changing lives
We're gonna tell you what you wanna hear
Even if God's Word is compromised
Whatever it takes to make our numbers grow
Is why we put on a show
We're staying relevant here inside these walls
You say I'm pointing fingers, that must mean I do no wrong
Where were you when I sang the first verse of this song
I'm just a big mess, but thank God I'm a work in progress
'Cause I need all of God's Grace that I can get
So what am I doing and why am I here
Who am I trying to impress
Hey sound guy make sure that my vocals are clear
'Cause I don't wanna sound like a mess
Please God help me remember the words
I don't want them to look at me like I'm absurd
I just want to see smiles inside these walls
Can people see Jesus
Do people need Jesus
Do I love like Jesus
Outside these walls
