Five Things More Sacred Than Christ ----------------------------------- ( Lyrics Copyright © 2000 Anthony J. Garot ) Don't you ever cry on sacred ground. Don't you ever cry on sacred ground. You can cry, you can always cry, But don't you ever cry on sacred ground. There's fear in your heart, That is true. Because you don't know where to go or what to do. You go to church, A holy place to go, But there are five things that you should know. Your heart is full, With love of people, But there are five things missing under your steeple. There you sit, In your Sunday best. But there are five things that you have missed. In God We Trust, But you pay Cash, There are only five things meant to last. A friend has died, Your tears go on living, There are five things that you haven't forgiven. You see the sunset, You look away, There are five things that you missed today. The day is done, Your work's not finished. There are five things for which you are punished. I got my wings, I don't know how, There are five things more sacred than though. You are sitting there, Before the pearly gates, Because there are five things you still hate. Maybe I'll see you, On cloud nine, But there are five things that you'll leave behind. There is nothing more For me to say, You still have five things left to do today.
