lyrics

You told me so many times you’re a Christian (Is. 29:13)
You say you’re born-again and you know God (Luke 18:9-14)
Oh its not just the outward appearance (Matt. 23:27-28)
But not the inward Life (2 John 9)

Don’t just be hearers of the Word (Acts 17:30, Acts 3:19-20, 1 Peter 2:11-12)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word (Ro. 12:1-2)

You go to church on Sunday with all your friends (Is. 30:1, Amos 5:21)
You know all the words to say you sing all the hymns (Amazing Grace)
(Amos 5:23, Mark 7:6-7, John 5:39-40)
You’ve got the outward appearance
But not the inward Life (Matt. 23:5-7,28)

Don’t just be hearers of the Word (Jas 1:23-25)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word (Jas. 1:22)

Music refrain

Don’t just be hearers of the Word
(What ya gonna do on judgement day... no no)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word
(Don’t just be hearers but do what the Word has to say)

How long will it be before you come alive (Heb. 3:7-15)
If you remain a hypocrite you’ll surely die (Jer. 17:10, Matt. 23:33)
Oh, it’s not just the outward appearance (Mark 7:13)
It’s the inward Life (Mark 7:20-23, Gal 5:16-25)

Don’t just be hearers of the Word (John 8:31-32)
(Don’t just be hearers of the Word)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word (Prov. 3:11-12, Prov. 3:5-6)
(Jesus wants to tell ya somthin’ He loves you today)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word
(no no Don’t just be hearers of the Word) (Heb 6:9-12)
Don’t just be hearers of the Word
(Jesus is the Light and He’s the Word)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
House of Christ, those who have called themselves by My Name
I know your confession of Me, yet this I have to your blame
You’ve not cleansed the inside of your wicked hearts
You’ve not passed through the veil and from Me received your start

House of Christ, many times I wished to draw you near to Me
yet you rejected all My earnest pleas
That which you call holy is evil in My sight
Your tithes, gifts and offerings without your heart aright

House of Christ, masquerading Christians wearing a facade
The outward show of religion yet sin you have not shod
Masquerading Christian with yourself still on the throne
Until you pass from death to Life heavens not your home

House of Christ, be not deceived you will reap what you sow
I’m coming soon My rewards you shall know
You’ve not cleansed the inside of your wicked hearts
You’ve not passed through the veil and from Me received your start

House of Christ,
Oh... Oh... House of Christ
Oh... Oh... House of Christ
Oh... Oh... House of Christ
