They will hide their sin
With the loudest of “amens.”
-But stay still, within.
Speaking up in church
Puts them on a holy perch
But won’t end their search.
They think a raised voice
Makes up for all their bad choices.
-Not this false rejoice.

Hi! Love this! I think you’re absolutely right. I guess some people are just overcompensating because they have something to hide.

I’m glad you liked it!
And that’s what I assume as well. I think people think, “if I go to church on sunday, it will make up for everything I do the rest of the week.”
Hypocritical attitudes like that flood the churches around where I live.
