Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if,
Jesus was standing next to you?
Would never say that you're right,
Never say you were wrong,
But we need to find
a better way to get along.
There will come a day
when we'll need to fight.
We'll have to defend our neighbors on the left
and the others on the right.
Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if
Jesus was standing next to you?
It's okay to disagree.
We can because we're free
Like Lincoln and Douglas,
Maybe we need to do it civilly.
Turn up the heat,
Fan the flame,
Never your fault,
The other guys to blame,
Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if
Jesus was standing next to you?
Keep them living in fear,
Swearing the future is here,
We are about to lose,
everything we held dear,
The louder you talk,
the less I hear,
The talking heads have us convinced,
that the end is near.
Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if
Jesus was standing next to you?
Let’s play a game
Let’s have some fun
We can argue about the ball you dropped.
And cost us a run
Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if
Jesus was standing next to you?
Trying not to preach,
That's not what I do,
But I have to ask,
Would you say that if
Jesus was standing next to you?
