Monday Morning Church

(Erin Enderlin, Brent Baxter)



You left your bible on the dresser

So I put it in the drawer

'Cause I can't seem to talk to God

Without yelling anymore.

When I sit at your piano,

I can almost here those hymns

The keys are just collecting dust

But I can't close the lid.



You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church

It used to be so full of faith

And now it only hurts.

And I can hear the devil whisper,

''Things are only getting worse.''

You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church.

The preacher came by Sunday

Said he missed me at the service

He told me Jesus loves me

But I'm not sure I deserve it.

'Cause the faithful man that you loved

Is nowhere to be found

Since they took all that he beleived

And laid it in the ground.



And left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church

It used to be so full of faith

Now it only hurts

And I can hear the devil whisper,

''Things are only getting worse.''

You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church.



Well, I still believe in Heaven

And I'm sure you've made it there

But as for me without your love, girl

I dont have a prayer.



You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church

It used to be so full of faith

And now it only hurts

I can hear the devil whisper,

''Things are only getting worse.''

You left my heart as empty

As a Monday morning church.
