Dissent
Institutional churchianity
Wants to keep us in line
Never questioning
Just submitting every single time
Bowing down to authority and rule
No matter how divisive or cruel
When we see love isn't at the heart
It's time for us to turn and depart
Bowing down to authority and rule
No matter how divisive or cruel
When we see love isn't at the heart
It's time for us to turn and depart
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
When Christians are more like Pharisees
Dotting the i's and crossing the t's
Missing the heart of what Jesus said
Making rules and doctrines their spider's web
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
Making a big deal out of who has the power
Ignoring hurting people to elevate the gospel tower
When people strain out the gnat and swallow a camel
Its time the system be dismantled
There is hope for those who hear
When to Jesus words they draw near
Fighting free of the sticky religious web
Empowered for others to love again
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
Our fight is noble for love and light
To raise our voices in the night
"Follow Jesus" our rallying cry
The meek & humble He won't deny
Wants to keep us in line
Never questioning
Just submitting every single time
Bowing down to authority and rule
No matter how divisive or cruel
When we see love isn't at the heart
It's time for us to turn and depart
Bowing down to authority and rule
No matter how divisive or cruel
When we see love isn't at the heart
It's time for us to turn and depart
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
When Christians are more like Pharisees
Dotting the i's and crossing the t's
Missing the heart of what Jesus said
Making rules and doctrines their spider's web
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
Making a big deal out of who has the power
Ignoring hurting people to elevate the gospel tower
When people strain out the gnat and swallow a camel
Its time the system be dismantled
There is hope for those who hear
When to Jesus words they draw near
Fighting free of the sticky religious web
Empowered for others to love again
Dissent! (Dissent)
Rebel! (Rebel)
Raise holy hell! (Holy hell)
Our fight is noble for love and light
To raise our voices in the night
"Follow Jesus" our rallying cry
The meek & humble He won't deny
