Matthew 6:5,16, |
|
James 4:6 |
|
I can tell by the look on your face |
|
It's another day of fasting |
|
I can tell by the length of the shadow |
|
That your face is casting |
|
And you look both ways before you pray |
|
Just to see who's watching you today (Chorus) |
|
It's just your altar ego - and it's so hard to know |
|
Beneath the piety and hidden vanity begins to show |
|
It's just your altar ego - and you don't even know |
|
And you won't even grow til |
|
His Spirit strikes a bow |
|
To your altar ego |
|
You love to seen by men |
|
In all the public places |
|
And you always pick the best of the seats |
|
You've got the social graces |
|
Can you be so proud of respect you've won |
|
When your left hand knows what the irght has done |
|
Turn around and face the |
|
One Who knows your heart |
|
He knows your heart |
