Apology

Lyrics

By Christopher W. Johnson

Verse 1

Go
Ignore the signs
Stop your ears, shut your eyes
To the divine

Claim
You have no soul
While your soul tries to fill
A God-shaped hole

Bridge 1

You say "uncouth untruth
Show me the proof
None of us have even seen God"

Chorus 1

Love grows
Overflows
Saves souls from undertows
That's what you see when you see God

Despair
Endless care
Discontent with everywhere
That's what you get without God

That is the difference of God

All I really want
Is God

Verse 2

Fain
A heart of gold
When we're born into sin
A thousandfold

Deign
To study church
Let the mud and tomes of fools
Be all you search

Bridge 2

You say "two-faced
Disgrace
Look at the past
The church has only defamed your God"

Chorus 2

Those wolves
Sheep's clothes
Hell's leaven in the loaves
Tryin' to fashion a new god

Past tense
Penitence
Straw men for your militance
None of those really knew God

It's time you met the children of God

All you really need
Is God
