Lyrics

Do you ever feel misunderstood


When You look at what this thing’s become


How does something that sides with the least 


Be the thing that excludes them the most 


And I’m not trying to put words in Your mouth


Cause I fear that’s where we got it wrong


But sometimes the Jesus I see 


Seems so far from the Jesus I know


And just like these people I blame


Have I made You something You’re not?


Cause I live off the good of Your name


And in some ways I profit the cross


And I’m scared if You walked in this church


You might flip all the tables and go


So would that same Jesus love all my merch 


Or is that just the Jesus I know?


And I’ve tried with the best of my words


To be true to who You really are


But I wonder how far I fell short


Do you recognize Yourself in my songs


Cause all that I want is the truth 


And I hope my theology’s close 


But who could summarize Infiniteness 


To think I ‘know’ only proves that I don’t 


A mystery I’ll never quite get 


That’s the Jesus I know
