Is there anyone that fails

Is there anyone that falls

Am I the only one in church today feelin' so small

Cause when I take a look around

Everybody seems so strong

I know they'll soon discover

That I don't belong

So I tuck it all away, like everything's okay

If I make them all believe it, maybe I'll believe it too

So with a painted grin, I play the heart again

So everyone will see me the way that I see them

Are we happy plastic people

Under shiny plastic steeples

With walls around our weakness

And smiles to hide our pain

But if the invitation's open

To every heart that has been broken

Maybe then we close the curtain

On our stained glass masquerade

Is there anyone who's been there

Are there any hands to raise

Am I the only one who's traded

In the altar for a stage

The performance is convincing

And we know every line by heart

Only when no one is watching

Can we really fall apart

But would it set me free

If I dared to let you see

The truth behind the person

That you imagine me to be

Would your arms be open

Or would you walk away

Would the love of Jesus

Be enough to make you stay

Behind the Song:

"I don't think it bothers the world that we sin. I think it bothers the world that we act like we don't. There are times that instead of being myself and exposing my own weakness and hurt, I portray a character of the person that I know I should be. But when I expose myself as weak and frail at times, it frees the Body of Christ to restore me as it should and invites others to unmask as well." - Mark Hall (Casting Crowns)

Who wrote Glorious Day by Casting Crowns?

Glorious Day by Casting Crowns is actually an old hymn called "One Day", redone. Mark Hall, lead-singer of Crowns and company basically just changed the melody of One Day. J. Wilbur Chapman wrote the lyrics to the original hymn One Day. The melody has been reworked by several people, including Jeff Johnson, Michael Bleecker and Mark Hall but the words remain unchanged from those written by Chapman. Michael Bleecker is the Worship Pastor of The Village Church in Flower Mound, Texas. Mark Hall, lead-singer of Casting Crowns, actually came to him and asked if he could use "Glorious Day" on their new album. So Glorious Day was actually written by Bleecker and he used the old hymn "One Day" lyrics.


Where can one find lyrics to the song Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns?

The song Voice of Truth is basically Mark Hall's (the lead-singer and song-writer of Casting Crowns) testimony put to a song. The original name of 'Voice of Truth' when Mark originally wrote it, was 'Fear'. It is Mark's story. The "Voice of Truth" is/ represents Jesus Christ. Via Mark Hall on Casting Crowns . com: "The beginnings of this song came from the first song I ever wrote, called "Fear." Growing up with dyslexia and some learning challenges, Satan used that in my life to keep me very small and very afraid to ever try anything, to ever leap out of my boat and do something that I knew I couldn't do. I'm learning that God often puts us in the position to do the unthinkable knowing we're not able to. God's not intimidated by what intimidates me and if I can just understand that all He wants me to do is obey him and that the things that scare me, don't scare Him. This was the first song Steven and I wrote on together, and he pulled out that chorus of 'voice of truth.'"
