Speak From The Heart

6:00

Song Description:

A reminder to Christians to remember how non-believers view us, and our

responsibility to utilize heartfelt communication in all we do.

Lyrics:

 

What is it about us Christians

that non-believers reject?

When we ignore their objections

our worldviews just don’t connect.

 

One thing that atheists mention,

they see us there in plain sight,

hypocrites breaking commandments.

We have to admit when they’re right.

 

     Speak from the heart

     open and sincere.

     Communication must be civil

     to make the Gospel clear.

 

We Christians know we’re not perfect,

for unlike Christ we still sin.

Stumbling should keep us humble.

So pray for forgiveness to Him.

 

If this bad attitude’s present

resented by all we see

that “holier-than-thou” impression,

replace it with humility.

 

     Speak from the heart

     open and sincere.

     Communication must be civil

     to make the Gospel clear.

 

The world is the Devil’s domain.

Temptations lure every day.

We must remember that Jesus

is the Truth, the Light, and the Way.

 

Speak from the heart…..

 

Another critique that is made 

about a trait we may show.

Judgements we make in haste

of someone we don’t even know.

 

We pray for the faith and courage

to tell all those who don’t know

our earthly choices prepare us,

determining which way we’ll go.

 

     Speak from the heart

     open and sincere.

     Communication must be civil

     to make the Gospel clear.

 

     Speak from the heart

     open and sincere.

     Communication must be civil

     to make the  Gospel clear.
