Couplet 1

I still love the church
After all the years of watching how it works
I just still believe this world
Could do a whole lot worse
Than to find
What You call home on earth

Couplet 2

I still love Your house and it seems
It's slowly making me the odd man out
It feels strange that it feels strange
For me to say it out loud
That I'm Your child
And I still love Your house

Refrain 1

I know this isn’t all poetic
No it’s not all that profound
But this truth is more important
Than the way I make it sound
Why would I receive redemption
Then curse where it was found
When those less than perfection
Let me down

Post-Refrain 1

'Cause I have seen the cost that the ones
Who lead the way will pay to reach the lost
We may see them on the stage
But we don’t know the scars
That they have earned
From picking up their cross

Refrain 2

If I know I needed saving
And I’m still in need of grace
Why would I look down on anyone
When they’re needing the same
And why would´ I be the exception
When it’s me that feels the pain
When not even the cross
Made You cast blame

Pont 1

For who can know
All that they’ve poured out in the secret
But You have seen
Every sacrifice
When we’re obsessed
With turning the tables on the weakest
We soon forget
How most have laid down their very lives

Pont 2

What a trick of hell
To turn Your house against itself
A lost and dying world watching us
Fighting to their death

Pont 3

Maybe it makes me naïve
But I still think in most You’d see
A bride in whom Your heart is pleased
And say well done my good and faithful ones
You have my heart

Refrain 3

I have so much more to say
Than I can fit inside these lines
But I guess that’s just what happens
When You give it your whole life
If my faithfulness is how
My time on earth will be defined

Post-Refrain 2

Then day by day I won’t be hard to find
For better is one day than a thousand lives
So come what may but as for me and mine
I still love the church
