Crazy Christian Conspiracies


Crazy Christian Conspiracies
Robert Withers

Crazy Christian conspiracies
O how they weary me
They are a trial to my soul
Where did the Gospel go?

Like children who cry to be entertained
We chase conspiracies in sunshine and rain
Forwarding emails to everyone
It’s all about politics, it’s not about the Son

We try to clothe Jesus with anger and hate
We make Him our hit man, if we take the bait
Down to the pig pen of this world’s desires
We trample the Cross, ignoring the cost

We are the lackeys of those who incite and inflame
They feed our base instincts to abuse and to blame
While Christ hung on the Cross to draw all to Himself
We condemn others and dishonor His name

“Blessed are the peacemakers” must not be for us
We are the inquisition! Surely you knew
The rack and the flame, the accusation too
We’ll destroy who we can and let God sort the rest


When we should be shining we walk in the dark
When we should be peaceful we rant and we shout
When we should be loving we harden our hearts
And as to forgiving, you’ve got to be kidding!

Crazy Christian conspiracies
Killing our witness, profaning the Cross
Caricaturing Jesus, turning gold into dross
The Gospel…we’ve lost.
