If We Are The Body Lyrics
Artist(Band):Casting Crowns
Review The Song (77)Print the Lyrics
It's crowded in worship today
As she slips in
Trying to fade into the faces
The girls' teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know
Farther than they know

CHORUS
But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way
There is a way

A traveler is far away from home
He sheds his coat
And quietly sinks into the back row
The weight of their judgmental glances tells him that his chances
Are better out on the road

CHORUS
But if we are the Body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the Body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus paid much too high a price
For us to pick and choose who should come
And we are the Body of Christ

Chorus (2x)
If we are the body
Why aren't His arms reaching
Why aren't His hands healing
Why aren't His words teaching
And if we are the body
Why aren't His feet going
Why is His love not showing them there is a way

Jesus is the way

Review about If We Are The Body

Makes us think | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/1/09

I think most christians would have heard the saying that we are often the only 'Bible' that some non-christians will ever read. Id say almost all of western society knows the story of the gospel (they only have to turn on the tele at Christmas time) but they don't see the 'proof' that God is working. I believe Jesus commisioned his church to continue his work... so if we reached out to our society and loved like He did, wouldnt people would see a difference!!! What sort of change could we make to the world if we only loved like he did for even just one day?!? People would notice that there really IS a God!! Its certainly challenged myself to have a good think about the way I treat people and live my life



A Powerful Song | Reviewer: Anonymous | 1/12/09

I just sang this song in church at the request of our pastor. It's the second Casting Crowns song that he's requested to be sung before his message. It is a credit to a songwriter that his lyrics are so powerful that they can be used as a prelude to a sermon. I got short notice on this and I also suffer from stage fright, not to mention having "senior moments"! I can't remember lyrics like I used to. Well, long story short - I somehow messed up on the timing/entrance to the last sets of the chorus, had to stop and wait to get in at the right place in the music, had some "life flashing before my eyes" moments, and somehow managed to finish. I just about cried when I got back to my seat! I had never messed up so badly! I felt I had let the Pastor down. However, I got more comments from the content of this song than most that I have done. I didn't mess up on the verses where the hard-hitting scenes take place. I was again reminded that God really doesn't need us to do what he wants to accomplish! He always works in spite of us! Praise God!

this song is so wonderful. i'm just a teenager and this song is so touching to me, i think that it is so wonderful how god can forgive his people daily and bless them, but in return us christians can't even stand up for god or be even true to him, so i think god for blessing the casting crowns for this amazing song.



God is the one who does the glory not men | Reviewer: BAMBI | 11/10/08

This song really touch my heart on how God showed his love for us and we aren't repaying back the way a true christian should do it. And don't forget dat is not about religion is about how much u love god and follow his word. We should be thankful to him everyday that he gives us life and that he protects us from harm in anyway a man can't. In 1 Peter 2:9 it says that we are chosen generation and we should not be sitting down wasting our time, is time for the true people of christ to stand up and get out into the world and preach the word of God to those people dat don't have God in their hearts. Dat is why God still has us in this world because MANY WILL BE CALLED BUT SO FEW WILL LEAVE WITH CHRIST. Never be ashamed of preaching to someone because their is nothing ashamed about God. Remember God will always here ur prayers and when u feel alone don't forget dat their is always someone in heaven dats taking care of u.... GOD BLESS U ALL



we are the body. | Reviewer: stephanie | 10/21/08

we are the body of christ and should love other as christ loves us. we look at people through the eyes of the world so much. but if we saw people as christ saw us, it would be so different, so much better. christ doesn't look at what we look like on the outside, he doesn't pick and choose through people. in his eyes everyone is beautiful, we must be because we are created in his image. to god we look just right, to the world we call people ugly and all sorts of names. how do you think that makes god feel when you call one of his children ugly? our goal is to bring people to god. we need to reach out, not push away. go in the world, not stay in our comfort zones. show love to the hated. we are the body.



No Judgment Allowed | Reviewer: Jessica | 10/13/08

This song by casting crowns meant a lot to me, because my family has always been looking for a church where we can fit in and feel like we belong. Some churches today just do not get the fact that they should be there for the Lord and not themselves. Judgment belongs to those who judge and Jesus does not stand for judgmental critical attitudes towards fellow Christians and unbelievers. He loves us all. As a church body, we need to remember that this is what we here to heal, to reach, and to minister. This is the best song done by Casting Crowns and one of my favorites. Casting Crowns is a great ministry using their talents through song to get the Love of Jesus out to people!



Living in the Body | Reviewer: Jenny Burton | 9/9/08

I am 21 years old and have listened to this song over and over again and now see that I am not living the body, I am a sinner and need to go back to my life of Christ. I have fallen back into old ways of doing the Devils deeds when I should be Doing the work of God. I will not change over night and I do know this but at the same time I shall change. The good Lord never turned his back on me he's always been reaching for me... I've just been too busy being mad and stuburn to notice. After listening too this song I have lifted my voice and taken the Lords hand. I have decided to be the voice that the Lord intended me to be. I am hear for anyone who would like to Talk and Thank You Lord for sending these beautiful words to Casting Crowns Thay are wonderful.

loads of songs | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/24/08

After listening to this song which a gilr in my youth group played to me I had to download it i Loved it, The message behind it and the love it tells us we should have for eachother as well as God. I also realised alot of my music can relate to our relationships with god, like Before your Love by Kelly Clarkson.



Truly, Why? | Reviewer: jMichelle | 4/28/08

I have been burdened recently by the incredible lack in the Christian church today. This song just so challenges our lukewarmness! If we are the body, why AREN'T His hands reaching?? Is our love that cold? The love of Jesus is so so sooo missing from our lives--our love for Him and His love for others flowing through us. Let us let God break our pride and our walls of defence, our walls of self-suffiency, our walls that make us islands...Reach out! Heal! Teach! Show! Go! Love! Forget the status quo, forget appearances--except the appearance of Christ.
