House of Prayer

Lyrics

[Verse 1] This is not my house of prayer But I was in your neighborhood I just had to kneel down here Thought it just might do some good Seems like everywhere I turn I see the whole world coming apart I couldn't take another step Not with this troubled heart Tell me, do you think He'll mind When my kneeling down is through That this is not my house of prayer? Well, it's gonna have to do [Verse 2] This is not my house of prayer But tell me, does your God above Promise you a place at the table No matter how or who you love? When I fold my hands to pray You hold yours a different way Tell mе 'bout your house of prayer Is evеryone allowed in there? Tell me how you justify Having heaven on your side Can't God show up anywhere? What if we let Him decide? [Bridge] So many people, so many ways To love and praise and sing God has to listen to every word I remain amazed at how we can all be Searching for the same damn thing And never feel like we're being heard [Organ Solo] [Interlude] This is not my house of prayer (This is not my house of prayer) This is not my house of prayer (This is not my house of prayer) This is not my house of prayer (This is not my house of prayer) But I was in your neighborhood [Verse 1] This is not my house of prayer But I was in your neighborhood I just had to kneel down here Thought it just might do some good Seems like everywhere I turn I see the whole world coming apart I couldn't take another step, another step Not with this troubled heart, oh [Outro] This is not my house of prayer I was in your neighborhood (This is not my house of prayer) I just had to kneel down here (But I was in your neighborhood) Thought it just might do some good (I just had to kneel down here) This is not my house of prayer (But tell me, does your God above) I was in your neighborhood (Promise you a place at the table) I just had to kneel down here (Promise you what you need) Thought it just might do some good (No matter how or who you love?) This is not my house of prayer (I'm saying, oh) I was in your neighborhood (This is not my house of prayer) I just had to kneel down here (Kneel down here) Thought it just might do some good This is not my house of prayer But I was in your neighborhood I just had to kneel down here I thought it just might do some good This is not my house of prayer But I was in your neighborhood, yeah I just had to kneel down here Thought it just might do some good This is not my house of prayer I was in your neighborhood (Yes I was)
