More noble

(More Noble)

(The Berean Song)

[Verse 1 ]The lights go down, the band kicks in, they build it nice and slow Forty minutes on your feet with nowhere left to go Your hands are raised, your guard is down, your heart's an open gate And that's about the time they bring the preacher to the plate

[Pre-Chorus ]He could tell you 'most anything, and brother, you'd say amen 'Cause a feeling makes a shaky place for truth to try to stand

Chorus But down the road in Berea, they had another way They opened up the scriptures every single day They heard the apostle Paul himself, and still they had to know So they searched it and they proved it, to see if it was so The Good Book calls them noble more noble, don't you know They searched the scriptures daily, to see if it was so

[Verse 2 ]Now I ain't against the singing Lord, I love a gospel song But the music ain't the anchor when the doctrine's going wrong A goosebump ain't the Spirit, and a tear ain't always true The Word will do the working, if the Word can get to you

(Chorus)

Bridge Don't check your mind at the welcome sign Don't trade the Book for a chill down your spine If Paul himself could stand the test Then friend, so can all the rest

[Final Chorus] So meet me down in Berea we'll do it the noble way We'll open up the scriptures every single day Don't take it 'cause you felt it, don't believe it for the show Just search it, and then prove it, and see if it is so The Good Book calls that noble more noble, don't you know Search the scriptures daily... and see if it is so

(Tag soft, half-time) Acts seventeen and eleven... see if it is so
