How Can We Be Worshippers Poem by Ramona Thompson

A rewrite/parody of Michael Bolton's How Can We Be Lovers

How can we be worhshippers if we can't be true believers
How can we be saved if our sinning never ends
Baby, how can we make love when all we ever make is war
Tell me how can we be worshippers if we can't be, can't be true believers


Look at us now, look at us people
Still tryin' to kick his holy goodness out
Never wanna behave right
We must be fools, we must be crazy
Whoa, whoa, when we won't allow any communication
Whoa, whoa, we just wind up in a no win situation


How can we be worhshippers if we can't be true believers
How can we be saved if our sinning never ends
Baby, how can we make love when all we ever make is war
Tell me how can we be worshippers if we can't be, can't be true believers


We lie awake, listening to Satan as he tries so hard to come between us
We're just not praying, tuning out a savior that still has so much to say
Let's break these chains, let his love free us
Whoa, whoa, ain't it time we started tryin'
Whoa, whoa, gotta stop our faith from dyin'


How can we be worhshippers if we can't be true believers
How can we be saved if our sinning never ends
Baby, how can we make love when all we ever make is war
Tell me how can we be worshippers if we can't be, can't be true believers


People, the world is tough but we can take it
People, times are rough but we can make it
We can work it out


How can we be worhshippers if we can't be true believers
How can we be saved if our sinning never ends
Baby, how can we make love when all we ever make is war
Tell me how can we be worshippers if we can't be, can't be true believers
