White-Washed Tomb

Lyrics

Verse 1
The Pharisees were braggin’ ’bout the deeds that they had done (Matt. 6:1-5)
Sayin’ prayers, givin’ money to the poor (Luke 18:11-12)
Jesus looked beyond the surface, saw their pride and saw their greed (Luke 16:14, I Sam. 16:7)
For God requires so much more (Matt. 5:20)

Chorus
Quit livin’ for the Devil but sayin’ you’re a saint
Hidin’ sinnin’ with a heavenly perfume
Quit prowlin’ like a lion but dressin’ like a lamb (Matt. 7:15)
Quit livin’ in a white-washed tomb (Matt. 23:27-28)

Verse 2
Bein’ in a pew on Sunday doesn’t make you born again (John 3:3-7)
Any more than goin’ fishin’ makes you bait
There is just one way to Heaven and it’s going through the Cross (John 14:6)
And Jesus is the narrow gate (Matt. 7:13-14, Luke 13:24)

Repeat chorus

Bridge
At the final day of judgment there are sheep and there are goats (Matt. 25:32-33)
And there’s not a single person in between

Repeat chorus
