Chorus:
Has anybody seen the choir?
I want to preach to the converted
I want to see them rising up
Don’t wanna see one gaze averted
Don’t wanna have to prove a point
Just wanna know they’re on my side
Just wanna smile and inspire
Has anybody seen the choir?
Has anybody seen the church?
Maybe that’s where I can find them
Standing tall against the fray
Strength and unity behind them
Have they gathered at the river?
Are they washed upon the shore?
Have they set the world on fire?
Has anybody seen the choir?
Are they teaching in the schools?
Are they drinking in the bars?
Are they making all the rules?
Are they fighting in the wars?
All I wanna do is get a glimpse of who they are
Has anybody ever seen the choir?
Though we may never reach consensus
Hope is still within our reach
We can learn to move together
Put some motion in our speech
We are a mighty congregation
With strength beyond our means
We have the passion and desire
Has anybody seen the choir?
