Washer Lyrics

Such a sad song. I think the lyric is "wash yourself in your tears, and build your church on the strength of your fears" and not "faith" though.

I'm pretty sure the word is "faith", but it could be fears.

He definitely says "faith", my friend. In context, building a church on the strength of one's fear wouldn't make any sense.
