Beyond the Steeple (Radio Edit) Lyrics

Walls of stone, hearts of glass,

Echoed prayers from the past.

Rituals that bind like chains,

But in the silence, one Name remains.

Whispers of a love so brave,

Breaking through the masquerade.

No more hiding in the shades,

'Cause in His arms, we're not afraid.

Religion kills, but Jesus saves,

Beyond the steeple, beyond the graves.

Love unending, grace unfurled,

Jesus' heartbeat for the world.

Stained glass windows, painted skies,

But do they see the tears we've cried?

Doctrine cold, can't hold His flame,

Jesus calls us, each by name.

No more shackles, no more games,

In His freedom, we proclaim.

Every shackle falls away,

In His presence, we're remade.

Religion kills, but Jesus saves,

Beyond the steeple, beyond the graves.

Love unending, grace unfurled,

Jesus' heartbeat for the world.

Not by works, but by His blood,

Drowning oceans of our flood.

One cross, one crown, one saving day,

Jesus' love, the only way.

Religion kills, but Jesus saves,

Beyond the steeple, beyond the graves.

Love unending, grace unfurled,

Jesus' heartbeat for the world.

Beyond the rituals we've known,

In His embrace, we've found our home.

Religion fades, but Jesus stays,

He is the Life, the Truth, the Way.

Religion is a return to slavery and bondage, Relationship is a restored fellowship of intimacy with the Father of lights. Jesus saves.
