Church of Your Body


I just want to worship in the church of your body
I have been a sinner for way too long
I can see heaven when I look in your direction
Church of your body is where I belong

A virtuoso with a canvas and brush
Can paint a woman so soft and lush
He illustrates her, illuminates her
But her creator is the fountain of love

And a sculptor working oh so long
To make her image in marble or bronze
He can mold her, he can shape her
But the beauty comes from high above

I just want to worship in the church of your body
I have been a sinner for way too long
I can see heaven when I look in your direction
Church of your body is where I belong

There is no greater evidence
Of superior intelligence
Than the lovely curves, than the lovely curves
Than the lovely curves of your body

And there is one thing I’d like to prove
There’s a sermon in the way you move
I can hear it, I can feel it
And I can sing it if you give me the groove

I just want to worship in the church of your body
I have been a sinner for way too long
I can see heaven when I look in your direction
Church of your body is where I belong

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday too
Friday, Saturday when I get the blues
It doesn’t matter which day you choose
It’s Sunday morning when I’m lookin’ at you

I just want to worship in the church of your body
I have been a sinner for way too long
I can see heaven when I look in your direction
Church of your body is where I belong
