Song Lyrics

"Ordinary"

by Heavenly Embers
Album: Heavenly Embers

Every song that I write
Every prayer I recite
Is meaningless if you're not in my heart.
Empty words echo through empty rooms
We need to see that you are so much more than a Sunday morning God

It's just the ordinary
The lies of today
How am I supposed to learn when even school refuse your Name
And church is only what I do on Sundays
I need to wake up and see the reality of this ordinary.

The world says that as long as I am good.
That my 'rights' outdo my 'wrongs',
That I will be fine in the afterlife.
They forget that Jesus gave His life
And as long as I believe I won't fear eternity!

It's just the ordinary
The lies of today
How am I supposed to learn when even school refuse your Name
And church is only what I do on Sundays
I need to wake up and see the reality of this ordinary.

Oh, how could I go for days without calling out your Holy Name'
I guess life gets in the way sometimes,
But isn't life a gift from You, oh God'
Oh I'm done with this charade,
So forever and today, I will...

Give up the ordinary
Give up living day to day
Instead I choose to spend time with you
And church becomes part of my everyday

Oh now I can finally see what's been in front of me all along
The majesty of your perfect reality.
Yeah the majesty of your perfect reality!
Oh Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
