Salvation Works |
| She’s a woman on a mission, always in the church |
| If you need a ride into town, her offer is the first |
| Yeah she thinks that if she’s perfect, she can outrun all the hurt |
| But that ain’t how salvation works |
| That steeple still needs paintin', they’re out there cuttin' grass |
| There’s a two line Sunday sermon, she’ll miss 'cause she drives too fast |
| And the message on the marquee, reflected in the glass |
| Is every sinner has a future and every saint has a past |
| He’s a man with a memory that turned into a curse |
| Keeps every bottle empty until he’s numbed down to the nerve |
| He thinks that forgiveness is reserved for souls like hers |
| But that ain’t how salvation works |
| That steeple still needs paintin', they’re out there cuttin' grass |
| There’s a two line Sunday sermon, she’ll miss 'cause she drives too fast |
| And the message on the marquee, reflected in the glass |
| Is every sinner has a future and every saint has a past |
| I can’t quote the Bible, the chapter or the verse |
| And heavens just a promise for those left here on Earth |
| But I believe that God loves us more then we deserve |
| And I hope that’s how |
| Yeah, I hope that’s how |
| I hope that’s how salvation works |
| Salvation works |
| Oh, I hope that’s how |
| I hope that’s how |
