Arguing Over Doctrine Lyrics

To the churches
And followers of Christ who attend
I implore you to be more inclusive
And less corporate

I am grateful there are many programs
To help Christians who attend
Learn and grow
But arguing over doctrine
Divides Christianity

Teachers should recount
Complete stories from the Bible
For lessons and guidelines
Not scout single-verses
To prove narrow paths
That cause division
And resentment

I pray to You
My Heavenly Father
That we can gather
In Your name
In love
And focus on our similarities
Rather than our differences

Please help us to set aside
Unimportant dogma and creed
That is petty in comparison
To Your saving grace
