JFH Song Lyrics

  Artist List   /   Petra   /   Back to the Street

         


09. Altar Ego

Back to the Street
by Petra



 

 

I can tell by the look on your face It's another day of fasting
I can tell by the length of the shadow That your face is casting
And you look both ways before you pray
Just to see who's watching you today

(Chorus)
It's just your altar ego - and it's so hard to know
Beneath the piety and hidden vanity begins to show
It's just your altar ego - and you don't even know
And you won't even grow til His Spirit strikes a bow To your altar ego

You love to seen by men In all the public places
And you always pick the best of the seats
You've got the social graces
Can you be so proud of respect you've won
When your left hand knows what the irght has done

Turn around and face the One Who knows your heart He knows your heart
