Wake Up Call Lyrics

Weight of the scriptures far too great so we just take some out,
We try misuse it, try dilute it, try and water it down
Church won't we wake up now,
Church won't we wake up now!

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e98521-husky~wake_up_call_lyrics.html ]

There are guys who long for the scriptures, and we act like theyre just pages
But these are the God breathed words that were fought for down through the ages.
Some guys even died for the bible, because they knew it was sacred
I can only pray for the faith that would cause them to die like they did
They put their life on the line so we could read The Word so divine
Influential to millions of lives but were still like they mean nothing to mine!
I ain't talking about the paper cos trust me, I don't praise no book
it's a way God speaks to us so all Christians should be craving a look
But instead we make our own god and forget the character that he's revealed
If we forget the truth of the scriptures, upon what will a Christian build?
So we turn to the wisdom of others, the romantics, feeling lovers
Live for the moment, live for the buzzes, but a feeling is not what God is

What happens when that disappears? Does that mean that Gods not there?
When all else fails and life turns rotten, nah I read of a God that cares
And I read of others just like me, but how they suffer's quite frightening,
They clung to the promises He made, you can read His promises each page...
