The Sabbath
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
You folks are low down
You'd rather see men hurt
You let them lack in everything and gravel in the dirt
You've got your noses hovering in the sky!
And you let old widowed folk just shrivel all up and die
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
You are self-righteous in everything you do
Instead of give God honor, you rather worship you
You even pray in public just to be seen
Beat'in drums and cymbals
Attention is your thing
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
Your tongue is like a viper
This makes you hypocrites
You lie for a living
You even make me sick
You hide behind poor Daniel and prophets of the past
You seem like well used coffins
You might as well be dead
Your eyes are like the blind
They might as well not see
My works of faith God honors
It doesn't matter what day
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
You folks are low down
You'd rather see men hurt
You let them lack in everything and gravel in the dirt
You've got your noses hovering in the sky!
And you let old widowed folk just shrivel all up and die
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
You are self-righteous in everything you do
Instead of give God honor, you rather worship you
You even pray in public just to be seen
Beat'in drums and cymbals
Attention is your thing
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
Your tongue is like a viper
This makes you hypocrites
You lie for a living
You even make me sick
You hide behind poor Daniel and prophets of the past
You seem like well used coffins
You might as well be dead
Your eyes are like the blind
They might as well not see
My works of faith God honors
It doesn't matter what day
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
Why do you feed the hungry
Why do you free the poor
Why do you show such mercy on the Sabbath day
Why do you quench the thirsty
Heal the sick and the rest
Why do you preach your gospel on the Sabbath day
