lyrics

The sun stares down on the highway and I've got my cross to bear
Look up to the heavens and I wonder if you're there
Feel the weight like my own sin, the splinters cut my hands
All gods children raise them up, we're bound for promised land

We set up a cross in a field and sing songs to praise him
We set up a cross in a field and sing songs

Dig deep the preacher says, the offering plates overflow
The church is not the building, it goes where the people go
Look down at the blueprint as gold shovels break the ground
Picture you in the temple throwing cash boxes around

We set up a cross in a field and sing songs to praise him
We set up a cross in a field and sing songs

The steeple looks down on concrete and glass
We all gather 'round the new golden calf
They build up the sets, the church is a stage
Like Pharisees kneel in public to pray

We set up a cross in a field and sing songs to praise him
We set up a cross in a field and sing songs
