vance gilbert - house of prayer lyrics

[verse 1]
this is not my house of prayer
but i was in your neighborhood
i just had to kneel down here
thought it just might do some good
seems like everywhere i turn
i see the whole world coming apart
i couldn’t take another step
not with this troubled heart
tell me, do you think he’ll mind
when my kneeling down is through
that this is not my house of prayer?
well, it’s gonna have to do
[verse 2]
this is not my house of prayer
but tell me, does your god above
promise you a place at the table
no matter how or who you love?
when i fold my hands to pray
you hold yours a different way
tell mе ’bout your house of prayer
is evеryone allowed in there?
tell me how you justify
having heaven on your side
can’t god show up anywhere?
what if we let him decide?

[bridge]
so many people, so many ways
to love and praise and sing
god has to listen to every word
i remain amazed at how we can all be
searching for the same d+mn thing
and never feel like we’re being heard

[organ solo]

[interlude]
this is not my house of prayer (this is not my house of prayer)
this is not my house of prayer (this is not my house of prayer)
this is not my house of prayer (this is not my house of prayer)
but i was in your neighborhood
[verse 1]
this is not my house of prayer
but i was in your neighborhood
i just had to kneel down here
thought it just might do some good
seems like everywhere i turn
i see the whole world coming apart
i couldn’t take another step, another step
not with this troubled heart, oh

[outro]
this is not my house of prayer
i was in your neighborhood (this is not my house of prayer)
i just had to kneel down here (but i was in your neighborhood)
thought it just might do some good
(i just had to kneel down here)
this is not my house of prayer (but tell me, does your god above)
i was in your neighborhood (promise you a place at the table)
i just had to kneel down here (promise you what you need)
thought it just might do some good
(no matter how or who you love?)
this is not my house of prayer (i’m saying, oh)
i was in your neighborhood (this is not my house of prayer)
i just had to kneel down here (kneel down here)
thought it just might do some good
this is not my house of prayer
but i was in your neighborhood
i just had to kneel down here
i thought it just might do some good
this is not my house of prayer
but i was in your neighborhood, yeah
i just had to kneel down here
thought it just might do some good
this is not my house of prayer
i was in your neighborhood (yes i was)
