You can also read a very in-depth analysis of the current state of the church in the world today, which really makes you think. The song speaks for itself.
Missing in Action
by Ray Lewis
All around the battle rages,
You can’t escape the sound,
From the back roads of this country
To the streets of our hometown.
In the courts and in the classrooms
On the jobs you work today,
War has been declared
Against the old time Christian way.
The church is under siege
The saints, misunderstood,
The Bible is under fire,
And evil triumphs over good.
Sin is marching through the land
To plunder, rob and steal,
While half the army of the Lord
Avoids the battlefield.
Chorus
Missin’ in action, missin’ in action,
This army of Christian M.I.A.s
While they say they love the Lord,
But they never draw the sword.
They’ll talk of right,
But they won’t fight.
These Christian M.I.A.s.
Church bells ring and choirs sing,
It’s Sunday meetin’ time
We sing Onward Christian Soldiers
And Keep on the Firing Line.
Ah, but then comes Monday morning
What a difference one day makes
The mighty host of yesterday
Can’t be found today.
Chorus
Missin’ in action, missin’ in action,
This army of Christian M.I.A.s,
Ah, they say they love the Lord
But they never draw the sword.
They’ll talk of right,
But they won’t fight.
These Christian M.I.A.s.
They’ll talk of right,
But they won’t fight.
These Christian M.I.A.s.
