Lyrics: 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.

You left your bible on the dresser
So I put it in the drawer...
