Question Mark Medley
Question Mark Medley
1. The Temple of the Living God
And then after all,
with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God.
And outside the gate
the cripples sit and wait
To see the temple of the living God
To see the temple of the living God
Solo
Suffer, trespass, stranger redeemed, Leviticus 21: 18,
The blind, the lame, the flat nosed, superfluous
Broken footed on burning sand
The Priest, the seed, the blood stained hand
The leper testifies and turns to dust
And then after all,
with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
And outside the gate
the cripples sit and wait
To see the temple of the living God
To see the temple of the living God
Oblation, vows, the promise of faith
Atonement, the wine, oil and cakes
The sheep, the goats, acceptable in his eyes
The maimed, the blemished, the scurvy scabbed
The creeping things, the firstborn lamb
Avail his presence in the house of sacrifice
And then after all,
with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
And outside the gate
the cripples sit and wait
To see the temple of the living God
To see the temple of the living God
2. Another World
The tent of meeting at the center
and the tribes are camped around
With the banners of the living creatures
sticking right out of the ground
The brazen alter and the laver
are before the Holy Place
Like Moses did upon the mountain
he will meet them face to face
So sanctify every boy and girl
as we step into, step into,
Step into, into another world.
As you enter in the courtyard
there's a smell of sacrifice
Reminding all the holy people
they must pay the highest price.
It's like I'm staring out a window
into another world
Where the lamb is sitting with the lion
And the beast protects the girl
My soul projection is a-flyin' now
As I step into, step into,
step into, into another world
Solo
3. The Outsider
I am no one
I hide outside
And I must stay in the darkness
'Cause the sun, it burns my eyes
The scapegoat leaves the people shout
With songs of mercy ringing out
But I am lonely
And dead inside
Clearly God doesn't love me
So I'll just wait outside
Watching the procession pass
The glory streams to earth at last
Guitar Solo
4. Entrance
I see a man with hair as white as wool
Whose tongue's a sharp-edged tool
With feet like burning brass
'Come', he says, 'I'll be your guide of sorts
Into the outer courts
For I have made a way'
'For the unclean ones to come into the gate

To the weakest ones I will give my strength
And the lowest ones, they will be brought higher
Let the unclean ones be washed in the fire'
I am afraid, so I'll stay where I am
But the Spirit takes my hand
and gently leads me in
Oh, there is the laver; He drops me in the bath
It's like a sweet heart attack
And I hear his voice again...
Let the unclean ones come into the gate
To the weakest ones I will give my strength
And the lowest ones, they will be brought higher
Let the unclean ones be washed in the fire
Sweet elation come on, come on
I'm part of the Holy Nation
And the past is forever gone
Wash and see the looking glass
Second heaven's coming fast
Seven candles so bright, so right
The incense burns on the mantle
As we eat the bread of life
And in third heaven's Holy Grail
Awaits behind the final veil
After all with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
After all with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
We seek the temple of the living God
5. Bridge
The way, the way is open
The door is open
The veil is torn in two (Matthew 27: 51)
The veil is torn in two
And the way is open
Is open now the way
6. Inside His Presence
And in this place of gold
The ancients walked this road
There is no death
There is no time
There is a love unknown
There is a scent of home
A rainbow wreath
A blazing throne
From a grave of stone
to a world unknown
From the smoke and ash
comes true life at last
Among earth and sod
the very life of God is here
From a list of laws
seeing all our flaws
To the blind, the lame,
we are all the same
Our High Priest has come
to make us all as one in Him
The temple of his throne
Is now not made with stone
It is your heart that's now His home
He will come and live
if you'll only give
Him a place inside
that this world can't buy
And the Holy Place
is now face to face in Christ
When He died and was born
the temple walls were torn
And God's Spirit poured out
poured out to us
And the temple of
the living God is you
The temple of the living God is you
Solo
7. The Temple of the Living God (Reprise)
And then after all
with our backs against the wall
We seek the temple of the living God
And now that it's done
the heart of every one
Can be the temple of the living God
Can be the temple of the living God
