Deeper (by Erin Reilly, Guitars by Jim Cruz)
Mix of my guitar work for Erin Reilly's song. Demo Version.

Story behind the song
A call to go deeper in the things of God and becoming a real follower of Jesus, forsaking lukewarm Christianity.
Lyrics
LYRICS
I don’t want the deadbeat, bone dry, crusty, hollow, hypocrite faith
Of A pathetic, cold, anemic, yo-yo church on Sunday Christian half baked
A sugar coated, rainbow, milk and cookies doctrine from the chucky cheese
I need the real thing
Where’s the real thing!?
WHAT! Are we playing church?
HEY! Can we see the hurt?
HOW are we ever bored
It’s time, it’s time
To go deeper (take the church to the street)
Love deeper (call out sin don’t retreat)
Pray deeper (with Christ there’s no defeat)
Live deeper if eternal life is what you really wanna reach
Can’t have a watered down, kiddie pool religion of all feels and happy vibes
Some Dairy Queen preaching teaching sit relax and live your best lives
There’s demons running rampant and God’s calling us to leave the sidelines
To be the real thing
Are we gonna be the real thing?
CHRIST died for more than this
DON’T live your life amiss
GO do the work because it’s time
(It’s time)
Go deeper (It’s time)
Love deeper (it’s time)
Pray deeper (it’s’ time)
