Sunday Morning Christian

Sunday Morning Christian (2003)

Joe Halter/M. Papierski

Too many Christians are just going through the motions and their personal and spiritual lives reflect their lack of commitment and lack of depth. On the surface they do and say the “right” things, however, when its all said and done they are really only going through the motions. I always have to ask myself if I’m putting my faith back on the shelf until next Sunday morning.

I go to church, on Sunday mornings,

For an hour once a week.

It feels so right. I feel so Holy,

To be blessed and to be seen.

The Preacher’s great! He’s got the Spirit.

The band and choir are in a groove.

I sit and watch them worship Jesus,

I don’t even have to move.

They pass the plate. I search my pockets,

I find some change that I can spare.

A couple dollars in the offering,

I feel so blessed that I can share.

This faith I have is oh so spiritual,

I feel so good about myself.

But once my Sunday morning’s over,

I put my faith back on my shelf.

Cause…

Chorus

I’m a Sunday morning Christian,

A superficial man of faith.

I’m livin’ life on my terms,

Don’t want to change my ways.

I want convenience not commitment.

(So don’t you) Don’t want no rain on my parade.

I want to do all that I want to,

I want a faith that’s tailor-made.

Yes, I’m a Sunday Morning Christian,

A deeply shallow man of faith.

I don’t need to read no Scriptures.

(I) don’t need to meditate or pray.

Don’t need to bear fruit for the Kingdom,

Cause I can have this faith my way.

Yes..

Chorus

Helping others is hard…(Its) Too much work for me…Why do more than you have to…After all (When) eternity is guaranteed…
