your holy spirit

I don’t want

it makes you arrogant

I watch how you lie

I watch how you take

I watch how you fold your hands

when there is so much to do

I see you behind the scenes

while others see you on the stage

I see you pretend to pray

I see you disregard rules

I also see you interpret the Word

to suit you and your wants

and I don’t want your holy spirit

I don’t want to pretend it’s church

I watched you and lost respect

for every person that shares your title

I’ve watched the hungry at the gate

while you leisurely hide at home

I’ve seen people begging prayer

while you play your games out on the field

I’ve watched you be absent

unless there’s a stage

I’ve watched you steal other’s words

and talk them as your own

and I’ve watched you train others to do the same

I don’t see this holy spirit in the Word

and your holy spirit

I don’t want
