Little White Lies

A mother looks in her little boy's eyes.  
"Mama, I didn't do it!" is what he cries.
It's a funny thing about little white lies ... She knows.

"Oh, How I Love Jesus!" the choir sings -
While their minds are all thinking 'bout other things
The whole church sits there wondering:
"Where's the Blessing?"   Cause it shows ...

God knows - and it shows -  
We can't hide what's really going on
'cause it shows, you know.
God knows - and it shows -
Don't the let devil keep you fooled any longer ...   It shows!


While the preacher preaches his loving heart out -
The deacons sit back and squirm and doubt
That ain't what God says it's all about - and He knows!

It's a funny thing about little white lies -
We grin and we laugh with no joy in our eyes
Sinners don't get saved!  Is it any surprise?  
They know --  'cause it shows

God knows - and it shows -  
We can't hide what's really going on
'cause it shows, you know.
God knows - and it shows -
Don't the let devil keep you fooled any longer ...   It shows!


If I tell you that I love Him but I never pray.  
His name never comes up in the words that I say
And my Bible just lays there day after day - You know

If we fall on our faces before His throne -
And we long for the day when we get to go Home
And just praising His Name is our only song,
It shows - and He knows...

God knows - and it shows -  
We can't hide what's really going on
'cause it shows, you know.
God knows - and it shows -
Don't the let devil keep you fooled any longer ...   It shows!
