Strangers in the House of the Lord lyrics

We are disgraced, we have been despised And shame has covered our faces For strangers have crept into the sanctuaries of our Lord's house The day will come, declares the Lord, when I will punish her idols Throughout the land the wounded will groan if Babylon reaches the sky (chorus) Strangers in the house of the Lord Strangers in the house of the Lord They went down to the temple and they saw Strangers in the house of the Lord Today we stand Christian women and men We make compromising decisions We only get one life Is it the world or Christ Tell me who are you living for They say the meek shall inherit the earth and hearts will rejoice Are we a world without love, unconsciously tough Have we become (chorus x2) (bridge) It's time to recapture A bold sense of meaning That we had when we gave our live to Jesus And trample the stranger within We are disgraced, we have been despised And shame has covered our faces For strangers have crept into the sanctuaries of the Lord's house (chorus x2)
