Rich Mullins - Screen Door (live) lyrics

"It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine Faith without works baby It just ain't happenin' One is your left hand one is your right It'll take two strong arms to hold on tight Some folks cut off their nose just to spite their face I think you need some works to show for your alleged faith Well there's a difference you know 'tween having faith and playing make believe One will make you grow the other one just make you sleep Talk about it But I really think you oughtta take a leap off of the ship Before you claim to walk on water Faith without works is like a song you can't sing It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine Faith comes from God and every word that He breathes He lets you take it to your heart so you can give it hands and feet It's gotta be active if it's gonna be alive You gotta put it into practice Otherwise It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine Faith without works baby it just ain't happenin' One is your right hand one is your left It's your light your guide your life and your breath Faith without works is like a song you can't sing It's about as useless as a screen door on a submarine."
