Lyrics

Some preachers can babble
But they don't say a thing
Only read from the Bible
If it doesn't sting
Only get up on stage
Because they like to be seen
They don't talk about sin
Cause they don't like to be mean
If the Word isn't read
The people won't change a thing
They skip the letters in red
To fill their pockets with green
But the sheep won't be fed
If they keep feeding their greed
We don't need motivational speech
To kindle somebody's light
We don't need someone younger to preach
To keep the passion alive
Oh the Word cuts the heart and the soul
And gently pierces the mind
Why the illustrations and pictures
Why'd we say goodbye to the scriptures
If faith is by hearing which comes by the Word
Then the Word must be preached for the word to be heard
If the eyes of the Lord look throughout all the earth
Would He find any faith
At the heart of the church?
We decorate words just to puff ourselves up
But we sacrifice truth upon the altar of love
Hey at least we sound holy and at least we look tough
We don't need motivational speech
To kindle somebody's light
We don't need someone younger to preach
To keep the passion alive
Oh the Word cuts the heart and the soul
And gently pierces the mind
Why the illustrations and pictures
Why'd we say goodbye to the scriptures
Goodbye to the scriptures
Goodbye to the
Goodbye to the scriptures
Goodbye to the scriptures
Goodbye to the
Goodbye to the scriptures
Goodbye to the
We don't need motivational speech
To kindle somebody's light
We don't need someone younger to preach
To keep the passion alive
Oh the Word cuts the heart and the soul
And gently pierces the mind
Why the illustrations and pictures
Why'd we say goodbye to the scriptures
