Strangers in the House of the Lord Songtext
von Three Crosses

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)
