Story behind the song
People make daily choices on whether to cross certain lines rarely stopping to think that the body they're defacing is the body of Christ. Seemed like a good song idea.
Lyrics
VERSE In the middle of the evening With the lights turned down Nobody notices, nobody's around. You've got a choice to make Nobody will know Only one indiscretion and away you go Your body shakes And your heart starts to tremble Wait a second, brother, Don't rob the temple. VERSE The flesh is willing Yeah, the body is weak The devil makes temptation such a treat The more you take, you know, The less you can give You just think about yourself Because that's all there is The signs are posted Yeah, they're more than just symbols Stop and think about it Don't rob the Temple. CHORUS The devil may come Like a thief in the night Or he might just catch you When the mood is right He can dance real slow Or take off like a rocket Before you know it There you are in his pocket But the Lord has an answer And it's really quite simple Think before you act, children Don't rob the temple. INSTRUMENTAL SOLO CHORUS BRIDGE The body is a temple Custom made by God And everyone can make the choice To raise or Rob You've got to choose for yourself Exactly who you will serve Just remember that your actions Speak louder than words. CHORUS
