Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tried it by the book over and over
Hoping that things would change
Heard a voice in the Spirit
Saying you can't hear Me directly for yourself
But just call out His name
[PreChorus]
When I look back over my story
God has been there every step of the way
[Chorus]
If there was no buildings, church on a hill
I'd still be connected 'cause I know my God is real
If there were no words written on a page
Whatever way He'd see fit, He still gon' make a way
It's a relationship more than religion that gets us saved
[Verse 2]
Been in church all these years and we learn tradition
Showing a form of God but we lost sight of the mission
No matter who you are, God is listening
When you call on His name, He'll give you direction
[PreChorus]
As we look back over our story
We can say, "God did it for me"
[Chorus]
If there was no buildings, church on a hill
I'll still be connected 'cause I know my God is real
If there were no words written on a page
Whatever way He sees fit, He will make a way
It's a relationship more than religion that gets us saved
[Bridge]
It's not about religion
It's more about relationship
I don't know what you're carrying
But I know He is real
[Bridge]
It's not about religion
It's more about relationship
I don't know what you're carrying but I know
He's real
[Bridge]
It's not about religion
It's more about relationship
Mmm
Let's focus on what really matters to You
[Bridge]
It's not about religion
Ooh Lord
It's more about relationship
All you gotta do is call on Him
[Verse 3]
He will
He'll be right there
He'll be right there
When you need Him most
Oh
It's about you talking to Him
And Him talking to You
Whatever you need from the Lord
It's all in the relationship
He cares about you
[Verse 4]
Oh, don't you want to be connected?
When you're home alone
And nobody's there
Know God sees you, He loves you, and He cares
[Verse 5]
It's not about the building
It's not about the pews
He wants you
He wants a personal relationship with you, yeah
[Outro]
If there was no building, Church on a hill
I know, I know, I know my God is real
If there were no words written on a page
It's your relationship more than religion
