If I Left These Pews Video (MV)

Welcome to the chapel, are you new here? Take a card
Take communion, take an oath, take some time to search your heart
Cause there's a lot of shit we think you'll find
You have walked up to and crossed the line
It's not that we don't love you
You just put us in a bind

So keep your distance just a little longer
Until the church finds you worthy to belong to her

I was saved by grace but gracefully denied
I thought I'd find a place to grow up free of shame I'd have to hide
I was torn in two thinking God was angry too
But I know Jesus would walk with me even if I left these pews

Come now, teach the children, serve the coffee, man the door
Give your time, give your tithes, give yourself but just be sure
To take the Word that you've been handed down
There's no room for you to wonder how
The meaning all got twisted
And half the world was just left out

I was saved by grace but gracefully denied
I thought I'd find a place to grow up free of shame I'd have to hide
I was torn in two thinking God was angry too
But I know Jesus would walk with me even if I left these pews

There's over seven billion people, now one more
And still not one soul has the answer
No one way to make things right

I was saved by grace but gracefully denied
I thought I'd find a place to grow up free of shame I'd have to hide
I was torn in two thinking God was angry too
But I know Jesus would walk with me even if I left these pews
I know Jesus would walk with me even if I left these pews
