Songs That Answer Questions by Truth (CCM) Lyrics

I don't want to spend my time
A-singing songs to answer questions
That nobody's even asking anyhow
When the house is burning to the ground
There's just no time to stand around
Arranging all the pictures on the wall

I want to spend my life
A-giving folks the living water
And the bread of life
They just can't live without
Instead of spending all that time
A-singing songs to answer questions
That nobody's even asking anyhow

I don't want to spend my life
Just preaching sermons that give answers
To the questions that no one's asking anywhere
When there's so much pain, so much hurting
There's no time to be a-searching
For the needles in the haystacks that aren't there
I want to spend my time
A-wearing myself out for Jesus
With the news a cure has been found
To heal our land
Instead of making lists, inventing creeds
That aren't concerned with people's needs
I'll show them how to touch the nail-scarred hand

I don't want to spend my time praying
Prayers bombarding heaven with requests
To reign down fire on saints who care
In our methods we may differ
But if Christ the Lord we live for
May we not forget the enemy's out there

I wanna spend my life
Making my part of the body
Of our Savior work with smooth efficiency
One may be the knee, and one the nose
You may be the fingers, and I'm the toes
But listen, my brother, I have need of these

I don't want to spend my time
A-singing songs to answer questions
That nobody's even asking anyhow
When the house is burning to the ground
There's just no time to stand around
Arranging all the pictures on the wall
I want to spend my life
A-giving folks the living water
And the bread of life
They just can't live without
Instead of spending all that time
A-singing songs to answer questions
That nobody's even asking anyhow
