Total Opposites But We'll See

Mistake Churches for Bars

I mistake angels for cars
I mistake churches for bars
The headlights are blinding
Seems like bad timing
But it’s His time not ours

I mistake churches for bars
I mistake angels for cars
And maybe I’m just to naïve
Or maybe I’m too drunk to leave
But no that’s not the case
And it’s all such a waste of my time
I could be depressive
Or passive aggressive
I’m searching for fellowship
I’m seeking my God
I’m making excuses
And He sees through my façade

I miss take God’s words for my own
I mistake the Truth for the unknown
Couldn’t you be a little clearer
Now that I’m drawing nearer
Or am I just all alone?

The last thing I need
Is to push myself away
Lord this seed
Must grow today
And I want to love you
Like Jesus showed His love
Because I have the right to
Granted by God above
So Lord be in my heart
Though it is so dark
Please let me take part
In you lighting the spark


I mistake signs as reasons to disbelieve
I mistake altar calls as a reason to leave
You know my deepest hearts desire
It’s you in the center of the fire
Is my heart really willing to receive?

Not because I don’t believe
But I just want to leave
Because no one is seeking
We’re all here just meeting
Being fake in religion
caught up in tradition
whatever happened to the commission
so great in thy tradition
I don’t want to be lonely
But only if only
We all knew the fullness of love
But when push comes to shove
I feel so inadequate
And I can’t snap out of it

I mistake angels for cars
I mistake churches for bars
The headlights are blinding
Seems like bad timing
But it’s His time not ours

And we are all wanting a fill
But we have chosen the thrill
Thanks be to grace
Because we’re all forgiven
And I’m seeking your face
But am I truly living
Will this body be drunk in the Spirit?
Does anyone hear it?
Or do we worship from distance?
Is there still resistance?
But I’m wanting all of you
Including what I don’t comprehend
When it comes to what’s true
It seems the there is no end.

I see the angels coming near
The church is seeing clear
And the Lord’s light is shining
It was all in his timing
And now this unending love is here
