Lyrics
[Intro]
Folded hands
Work-worn jeans
Old wood pews
And my mama’s dreams (yeah)
[Verse 1]
Empty seats in the church today
But mama still singing like it’s Easter Sunday
Red dirt road on her Sunday shoes
She been dragging my name right up that fuse
I was chasing that bottle, that barroom fight
She was chasing my soul in the dead of night
Said, “Boy, I believe when your faith runs dry
Heaven still hears a mama cry” (yeah)
[Chorus]
Empty seats in the church today
But God’s gift still on that stage
Jesus’ love in an old worn page
And a mama’s prayer still makes a way
I was lost in my broke-down ways
But grace found me in that grave
Empty seats in the church today
Still got a full-time Savior, ayy (thank You)
[Verse 2]
Got a Bible with coffee stains on John
Highlights bleeding where my tears fell on
Used to think I was too far gone
But that stone rolled back and He proved me wrong
Now I rap these verses in a farmer’s cap
Hallelujah in a little backroad trap
From a pew in the back to the front row praise
Mama shouting “thank You” while the choir plays (hey)
[Chorus]
Empty seats in the church today
But God’s gift still on that stage
Jesus’ love in an old worn page
And a mama’s prayer still makes a way
I was lost in my broke-down ways
But grace found me in that grave
Empty seats in the church today
Still got a full-time Savior, ayy
[Bridge]
If you feel too dirty for a Sunday song
Come sit right here, you belong
He bled for the busted, the out-of-place
Mama’s tears paved the road to grace (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
Empty seats in the church today
But God’s gift still on that stage
Jesus’ love in an old worn page
And a mama’s prayer still makes a way
I was lost in my broke-down ways
But grace found me in that grave
Empty seats in the church today
But my heart got saved anyway (saved anyway)
