What this world needs

I am not much a "radio" gal, I prefer to listen to my favorite bands. Anyway, Michael just got some speakers to hook up to the HTPC and we were listening to Casting Crowns. The lyrics really caught my attention and I wanted to share, just in case you'd never heard/read them. This phrase in particular is SO relevant in today's churches, especially the super conservative ones. They expect people's "dress code" to change the moment they walk into the church building, but what they don't realize is that AFTER their hearts are changed by Him, then they will see that modesty is important. And as an FYI, if you know me, you know that I choose very modest clothing, yet I still wear pants and don't see anything in the Word that tells me that I should only wear skirts or culottes. I'm not bashing you if you feel that way, but I don't think you should shove that belief down someone's throat or judge them for not thinking the way you do. Anyhoo, here's the quote I love... "Have we become so blind that we can't see God's gotta change her heart before He changes her shirt."

Here is the remainder of the song...

What this world needs
Is not another one hit wonder with an axe to grind
Another two bit politician peddling lies
Another three ring circus society
What this world needs
Is not another sign waving super saint that's better than you
Another ear pleasing candy man afraid of the truth
Another prophet in an Armani suit
CHORUS:What this world needs is a Savior who will rescue
A Spirit who will lead
A Father who will love them in their time of need
A Savior who will rescue
A Spirit who will lead
A Father who will love
That's what this world needs
What this world needs
Is for us to care more about the inside than the outside
Have we become so blind that we can't see
God's gotta change her heart before He changes her shirt
What this world needsIs for us to stop hiding behind our relevance
Blending in so well that people can't see the difference
And it's the difference that sets the world free
Jesus is our Savior, that's what this world needs
Father's arms around you, that's what this world needs
That's what this world needs
