Jon Foreman Instead Of A Show Off His Album Summer
4 Out Of 6
Lyrics
hate all your show and pretense
the hypocrisy of your praise
the hypocrisy of your festivals
I hate all your show
Away with your noisy worship
Away with your noisy hymns
I stop up my ears when your
singing em
I hate all your show
Instead let there be a flood
of justice
An endless procession of righteous
living, living
Instead let there be a flood
of justice
Instead of a show
your eyes are closed when youre praying
you sing right along with the band
you shine up your shoes for services
but theres blood on your hands
you turned your back on the homeless
and the ones that dont fit in your plans
quit playing religion games
theres blood on your hands
Ah! lets argue this out
if your sins are blood red
lets argue this out
youll be white as the clouds
lets argue this out
quit fooling around
give love to the ones who cant love at all
give hope to the ones who got no hope at all
stand up for the ones who cant stand up at all
instead of a show
I hate all your show

I love this song. It really is a slap in the face for us Christians and a lot of us can't take it. But its true and all of us need to realize that we are all hypocrites and we need to be less focused on making ourselves out to be these great, holy people, when in truth we aren't. Thanks so much Jon.

This is SUCH a powerful song (and one of my favorites). Thanks for putting it up.

I think it was taken from Isaiah 1:13-18 . . What a powerful message! It cuts to the chase of things, no? What a God we serve!
