The Queer Gospel Lyrics
[Chorus]
Love us as we are
See us and we're holy
In this shall we shall ever be
Wholly ourselves
Your love will take us far
Praise us and we'll show you
From Heaven to the glory holes
Glorious and free
[Verse]
There are those who think we're wicked
There are those who call us names
Depraved, lost and sick and
Would rather bathe us in shame
But we put the "sin" in sincere
We put the "do" in the doubt
God is perfectly clear
We are perfectly out
[Chorus]
Love us as we are
See us and we're holy
In this shall we shall ever be
Wholly ourselves
Your love will take us far
Praise us and we'll show you
From Heaven to the glory holes
Glorious and free
[Verse]
I believe in the ritual of lipstick
The sanctity of electric guitar
But it's cool if you're not that Catholic
You can be wherever you are
[Chorus]
Love us as we are
See us and we're holy
In this shall we shall ever be
Wholly ourselves
Your love will take us far
Praise us and we'll show you
From Heaven to the glory holes
Glorious and free
Love us as we are
See us and we're holy
In this shall we shall ever be
Wholly ourselves
Your love will take us far
Praise us and we'll show you
From Heaven to the glory holes
Glorious and free
