GAMES PEOPLE PLAY

Games people play

There is a game that people play,
In which religion evolves
It is the most dangerous game to day
For the loss of one’s soul’s involved.
♢
It is a game of pretension,
It’s popular and is free
We act the part and play a role,
As a Christian we pretend to be.
♢
The game is “Playing Church,”
And Sunday is our game day.
We suit up in our very best,
And act like we’re in the narrow way.
♢
The message is a happy one,
For holiness we think is boring.
The Holy Spirit we think is working,
But it’s an evil one that’s imploring.
♢
We’re energized and excited,
By the preacher’s sermonette
We’re made to feel like winners,
But our life’s a sinful wreck
♢
We play this game inside the church,
Very religious, but alas still lost.
We think the Gospel is just a joke,
For which Christ Jesus paid the cost.
♢
We think the Holy Spirit is the One,
Stirring up our rebellious heart,
But an evil spirit impersonates Him,
Working his deceitful satanic art.
♢
We can only become a Christian,
By repentance and confession of sin.
Playing this game will never save,
Nor bring us peace within.
♢
Playing Church is a satanic game,
And Satan’s the one who names it.
He makes religion fun and tame,
And everyone loses who plays it.
