(Intro) (Spoken) Yeah, they got a million roads and a million signs... Different flags, different lines... hmmmmmm (Verse 1) The preacher on the corner, with his Sunday best suit, Talking 'bout the good book, planting brand new roots... But the roots are gettin' tangled, they're all tangled up in gold, Forgettin' all the pain that the broken-hearted hold... They got their rules and rituals, their ancient holy laws, But they're missin' the main message, the love behind it all. (Pre-Chorus) So you can shout your scripture, from a pulpit up so high, But the sound don't reach the streets where the people really cry... 'Cause the real work, it happens when the cameras turn away, And you're living out the truth, not just on a Sunday... (Chorus) One God... one King... that's the only song we sing, Ain't no other truth but that, ain't no other voice... Love and light when we're in the dark, feel it in your soul, make your own mark. 'Cause out here, we ain't playin' games, we ain't callin' different names, We just showin' love to the lost and lame... (Verse 2) See, the stained glass shows a picture, of a man on a wooden frame.., But the pain on these sidewalks can feel a whole lot more the same... It ain't about the sermon, or the hymn that you can hum, It's about a hand to hold when your whole world feels numb... It's about lookin' in a stranger's eyes and seeing more than fear, It's about a quiet kindness, a voice you know is near... (Verse 3) They pass the collection plate and talk about their righteous cause, But then they turn their backs on the ones who break the laws... Like a passage in the Bible that they read right from the start, They just turn the other cheek when a brother falls apart... They're talkin' 'bout salvation, and a promised heaven gate, But they're building up a fortress of anger and of hate... (Pre-Chorus) So they can talk their talk, from a pulpit up so high, But the spirit don't move here where the broken souls just cry... 'Cause the real work, it happens when the cameras turn away, And you're living out the truth, not just on a Sunday... (Chorus) One God... one King... that's the only song we sing, Ain't no other truth but that, ain't no other voice... Love and light when we're in the dark, feel it in your soul, make your own mark. 'Cause out here, we ain't playin' games, we ain't callin' different names, We just showin' love to the lost and lame... (Verse 4) Used to be that I was broken, drowning in the flood, Lookin' for a lifeline in the darkness, and the mud... The churches had their doors locked, and the pious turned their face, I found my redemption, right here in this place... In the kindness of a stranger, in the silence of the night, I saw the one true King, and He filled me with His light... (Pre-Chorus) So they can build their kingdom, on a platform made of stone, But the only true foundation, is a love that's truly shown... 'Cause the real work, it happens when the cameras turn away, And you're living out the truth, not just on a Sunday... (Chorus) One God... one King... that's the only song we sing, Ain't no other truth but that, ain't no other voice... Love and light when we're in the dark, feel it in your soul, make your own mark. 'Cause out here, we ain't playin' games, we ain't callin' different names, We just showin' love to the lost and lame... (Bridge) They can argue over titles, and who is right or wrong, But the truth is in the silent strength that makes us all so strong... It ain't in the fancy words, or the wisdom that they claim, It's just a light that shines inside and whispers out your name... (Verse 5) So let 'em have their titles, their robes, and their decrees, We're buildin' up a kingdom on our bended, battered knees... We're doin' it for the lost ones, for the ones that fall and crawl, 'Cause the King we follow, He came to save us all... He ain't concerned with borders, or the names that we invent, He's just concerned with the message and the time that we have spent... (Chorus) One God... one King... that's the only song we sing, Ain't no other truth but that, ain't no other voice... Love and light when we're in the dark, feel it in your soul, make your own mark. 'Cause out here, we ain't playin' games, we ain't callin' different names, We just showin' love to the lost and lame... (Outro) (Spoken) No different paths... No different names... Just one truth, one King... And the street knows His name...
