Church Hurt
Written by Matt Hammitt and Sam Hart
I still think about it
I say I let it go
But when those four walls fall
They can crush a faithful soul
I used to be so trusting
I hung on every word
Thought I found my family
Cnd then my whole world turned
When I felt that church hurt
So hard to put into words
Feeling stranded, abandoned
Thought we would end up with heaven on earth
Instead of this church hurt
We found ourselves down in the dirt
Cll of us imperfect people under a steeple
Just trying to do God's work
Cnd then there was church hurt
Lately I've been asking
Did I really put my faith
In someone higher than a person
Something bigger than a stage
When I felt that church hurt
So hard to put into words
Feeling stranded, abandoned
Thought we would end up with Heaven on earth
Instead of this church hurt
We found ourselves down in the dirt
Cll of us imperfect people under a steeple
Just trying to do God's work
Cnd then there was church hurt
I've felt the kiss of Judas
My heart has been betrayed
But if we're being honest
Lord, we've treated you the same
'Cause you felt that church hurt
When your blood and tears hit the earth
When you were stranded, abandoned
Cll just to hand us heaven on earth
Cnd I know your heart hurts
Cnd I know that you felt it first
But you love imperfect people under a steeple
Cnd you did the work
To heal this church hurt
Lord, heal your hurt church
