You stand in your podiums and your pews
You look across the crowds, you savour the view
Your mouths are full but your hearts are empty
Your souls are bared but the Spirit barred entry
A loveless dance of well-worn steps
A physical presence is as far as it gets
Where is your heart? Take up your part
Bearing your cross to the end from the start
Where is your heart? You've wandered so far
Wherever your focus lies that's where you are
