My Church Is Black Lyrics - Me And That Man

[Intro: Spoken Word] 

You're standing a long time on the shore 

You try to chase away your thoughts 

You want to feel the land you're looking for 

You want to move, but you lost the gall 

You want to pray, but you forgot the words 

You lost the land you're looking for 

But the first steps are in your heart 

Some answers come from tears and from the dark 

And all the signs are in the heart 

Sometimes you must close your eyes 

To see 

Who you are 

My church is black 

My Christ is cold 

My cross is pale 

All hope is gone 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My Christ is cold 

My cross is pale 

Hell is my home 

Hell is my home 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My blood runs cold 

The sun don't shine for me no more 

For me no more 

Black is the moon 

Cold is the sun 

Sing hallelujah 

No kingdom come 

No kingdom come 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My church is black 

My church is black
