I don’t care how many buses you own
Or the size of your sanctuary
Doesn’t matter how steep
Your steeple is, if it’s sittin’ on a cemetery
I don’t care if you pave your parking lot
Or put pads upon your pews
What good is a picture perfect stage
If you’re missin’ all the cues
I don’t care if your pastor is super powered
And your program’s always new
What you need is love and truth
And men are gonna come to you
It doesn’t matter if you know the Bible
If it’s all just in your head
But the thing I need to ask you
Is have you done the things I said?
Do you love your wife?
For her and for and for your children
Are you layin’ down your life?
What about the others?
Are you livin’ as a servant
To your sisters and your brothers?
Do you make the poor man beg you for a bone?
Do the widow and the orphan cry alone?
I don’t care if you pray for miracles
I don’t care if you speak with tongues
I don’t care if you’ve said you love Me
In every song you’ve sung
It doesn’t matter if your sacrifice of praise
Is loud enough to raise the dead
The thing I need to ask you
Is have you done the things I said?
Do you love your wife?
With all you’ve got inside you
Are you layin’ down your life?
What about the others?
Are you livin’ as a servant
To your sisters and your brothers?
Do you make the poor man beg you for a bone?
Do the widow and the orphan cry alone?
Lord, when were you a prisoner
But we did not come to you
When was it that we saw you sick
That we didn’t follow through
Every time you turned your head
And pretended not to see
When you did it not to the least of these
You did it not to Me
