Messenger - Christian Rocker Lyrics

Before the show, guyliner & gauges,
a brother came up to me.
He wanted to know 'Is the Word just pages?
Another church hating me.'

My heart is new. My world has changed.
But saints don't seem to be, the loving
people I've read about. So religious - they can't see.
I came to the Lord & the usher said,
'If I have to love you, I'd rather be dead'

Chorus
He wants to be my friend, He wants to see me go.
I don't think he knows what he's supposed to know.
He wants to call me vain, He's just a talker.
He's just judging me 'cuz I'm a Christian Rocker!

After the show, with her spikes and tats,
a sister came up to me.
She wanted to know '... just where it's at?'
On the twisted way life could be.
'My life is new. I'm full of love.
But my friends don't seem to see, 'I rock like
you but the difference is, Jesus Christ is the key.'
I came to the Lord & my boyfriend said,
'If I have to love you, I'd rather be dead'

Chorus

Bridge
My family saw a difference it was plain to see.
My mama noticed that there was a change in me.
She asked me how it happened then I turned to her &
said, "... some Stryper, Red, Skillet and some Messenger!"
