Turn Down The Music

I went to see my favorite duo, Shane & Shane, live on Monday night with my buddies Dan and Josh.
I was excited to hear that they had a new worship CD, and that they're set that night would include several songs from it.

They sang a song called "Turn Down The Music." The song was so convicting. Listen to it, and you'll see why. This is a random video that someone put together after going to Kenya on a missions trip. I'm posting it so you can listen to the word of this song. Hit play, and read the lyrics below.






If you were hungry, would we give you food?
If you were thirsty, would we give you drink?
If you were a stranger, would we let you in?
What would be the song we’d sing to you when they're in need?
Would it be an empty hallelujah to the King?


Turn down the music
Turn down the noise
Turn up your voice Oh God
Let us hear the sound
Of people broken willing to love
Give us your heart oh God
A new song rise in us


If you were naked, would we give you clothes?
If you were an orphan, would we give our homes?
If you were in prison, would we visit you?
What would be the song we’d sing to you with everything
Would it be an empty hallelujah to the King?

Let it be our worship
Let it be our true religion
In this world but not of it
Holding on to our confession
