Lord, which church would you attend?

Lord,

I was just wondering -

which church you’d attend

if you visited our town?

Would you still want to go to the Synagogue?

Would you be a Presbyterian?

A Roman Catholic?

A Baptist perhaps?

Maybe you’d be a Charismatic?

I mean, after all,

you are really into healing and miracles!

Lord I’m asking this because,

I’m not sure you’d fit into our church.

We like things to be predictable,

respectable and dignified.

We’re serious,

but not too serious.

You may be just a bit too radical

for our culture.

You see we might “think it”

but you “say it.”

I don’t think the Vacancy Committee would choose you

You don’t mind me being honest?

You know – speaking my mind,

Lord,

You really gave the scribes a hard time.

Not to mention the Pharasees.

You didn’t take prisoners.

You were about people over precedent.

What would you think of all our red tape

our Kirk Session,

our church laws,

Our services,

our robes,

our pews,

our way,

of doing

things?

Lord , you said,

You’d what ?

love it – if its from the heart?

Ah now you’ve got me!
