Part The Clouds

I like, like to be liked

And no one likes to hear the truth

And I've seen what the truth can do

So I tried, tried to downsize

The part of You that's hard to tell

But the layoff didn't go so well

Beat around the burning bush

'Til that fire went away

God was once so palpable

Before the shades of gray

We might as well just fold our hands

If we can't call a spade a spade

'Cause we will miss the heart each time

If we won't ever shoot them straight

These pleasantries shading me

And you too along

Let's part the clouds

And show the world the Son

We think, think we are helping

By giving You a little flare

But it doesn't matter what You wear

'Cause runways aren't Your forte

You prefer the narrow road

Even though it's not en vogue

The gospel looked so very cold

One night as I passed by

So I gave him my best sugar coat

And dressed it in a lie

We might as well just fold our hands

If we can't call a spade a spade

'Cause we will miss the heart each time

If we won't ever shoot them straight

These pleasantries shading me

And you too along

Let's part the clouds

And show the world the Son

This living water will not quench us

If it's watered down

Its not our place to hide again

This treasure that we've found

We might as well just fold our hands

If we can't call a spade a spade

'Cause we will miss the heart each time

If we won't ever shoot them straight

These pleasantries shading me

And you too along

Let's part the clouds

We might as well just fold our hands

If we can't call a spade a spade

'Cause we will miss the heart each time

If we won't ever shoot them straight

These pleasantries shading me

And you too along

Let's part the clouds

And show the world the Son
