Here we are again Broken down in the "promised land" Lord, what will we do? We put our trust in man Put our faith in the flesh again Took our eyes off of You We lift our heroes high They do right in their own eyes We look to them for the truth "But God resists the proud" Knocks us down till our heads are bowed No one's Lord but You We tried to serve You without holiness And it led to compromise Now I'm saying Lord, refine our souls Let the testing of our faith Produce the purest gold Purify our hearts Till this truth we clearly see We can never be Your servants Servants without scars We found an easy way One that's easy to obey We turned our back on the truth That all who take Your name Must bear the cross and share the shame The cost of following You We tried to serve You without sacrifice But Your love don't come that cheap Now I'm saying Lord, refine our souls Let the testing of our faith Produce the purest gold Purify our hearts Till this truth we clearly see We can never be Your servants Servants without scars We demanded all our rights In the glare of the TV lights Ah, we've reaped that we've sown Oh, but justice cries out to be heard Till we return to Your holy word Till we bow at Your throne Lord, refine our souls Let the testing of our faith Produce the purest gold Purify our hearts Till this truth we clearly see We can never be Your servants Your servants Lord, refine our souls Oh, let the testing of our faith Produce the purest gold Purify our hearts Till this truth we clearly see We can never be Your servants Ah, Your servants without scars
