His Word

Written by Marielle Kraft, Nell Maynard, and Autumn Marie Buysse

[Verse 1]
My friend went on a mission trip and she lost her faith
Tattooed first Corinthians just to watch it fade
My brother went to seminary
Hell he even got ordained
Now he doesn’t pray

[Verse 2]
Fifteen on the worship team singing for the Lord
Five years three times a week with the same four chords
If they heard my music now they wouldn’t let me through the doors
Not anymore

[Chorus 1]
Guess I asked too many questions
Guess I thought beyond that pew
Guess I met too many people
With different versions of the truth
I found orange, pink, and purple
In between the black and white
I hope I get to show you sometime
But for now it’s His Word against mine

[Verse 3]
Highlighted NIV in the recycling bin
Eden didn’t add up like the science did
They don’t like you leaving so they lead with an iron fist
But thank God I did

[Chorus 2]
Guess I asked too many questions
Guess I thought beyond that pew
Guess I met too many people
With different versions of the truth
I found orange, pink, and purple
In between the black and white
I hope I get to show you sometime
But for now it’s His Word against mine

[Bridge]
I’ve seen it
A love without conditions
I’ve felt her
A God without religion
If you can believe in so many things that you’ll never see
Why can’t you believe me?
Why can’t you believe me?

[Chorus 3]
Guess I asked too many questions
Guess I thought beyond that pew
Guess I met too many people
Who look nothing like you do
I found orange, pink, and purple
In between the black and white
I hope I get to show you sometime
There’s so much love outside of wrong and right
But for now it’s His Word against mine
