Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
My lover's got humor
She's the giggle at a funeral
Knows everybody's disapproval
I should've worshipped her sooner
If the heavens ever did speak
She's the last true mouthpiece
Every Sunday's getting more bleak
A fresh poison each week
"We were born sick"
You heard them say it
My church offers no absolutes
She tells me "Worship in the bedroom"
The only Heaven I'll be sent to
Is when I'm alone with you
I was born sick, but I love it
Command me to be well
[Pre-Chorus]
Aaa, Amen, Amen, Amen
[Chorus]
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
[Verse 2]
If I'm a pagan of the good times
My lover's the sunlight
To keep the goddess on my side
She demands a sacrifice
Drain the whole sea
Get something shiny
Something meaty for the main course
That's a fine looking high horse
What you got in the stable?
We've a lot of starving faithful
That looks tasty
That looks plenty
This is hungry work
[Chorus]
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife
Offer me my deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
[Bridge]
No masters or kings when the ritual begins
There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin
In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene
Only then I am human
Only then I am clean
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, oh Amen, Amen, Amen
[Chorus]
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life
Take me to church
I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies
I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife
Offer me that deathless death
Good God, let me give you my life

Lyrically, "Take Me to Church" is a metaphor, with the protagonist comparing his lover to religion. The song grew out of Hozier's frustration with the Catholic Church which, as somebody raised in the Protestant Quaker faith, he saw as dominating the social and political outlook of the Irish state
Thank you for explaining this song.
Correct me if im wrong, but by the lyrics, the song kinda gives me the feelings of worship to god (aka the lover). I can hear the frustation on the lyrics, but its still like a blind following of someone you love. I'm geniusly asking, because from my perspective, i wish this song was a satire on toxic relationships/religions. But seems to portray an opposite, blind following.
@@GreenSpyro the song is at first a idolization of god and religion wishing he “worshipped her sooner”. The song eventually devolves into paganism and the belief that religion itself is simply constricting in its current form and that church only exists to punish. This is why the music video portrays it as a gay romance being punished which recontextualizes the whole song, making the song someone shunning themself due to the church and having straight intercourse to convince themself that they aren’t a sinner, a delusion of holiness.
@@GreenSpyro music gives meaning to each user the person who wrote it, is correct on WHY he did BUT everyone will take there own meanings, thats why music transcends time n space
the main character is gay, and this is a sin, he does not want to burn in hell, he is trying to redeem himself

Coffee? 😂
Black and red??
Coffee???
The meaning of the song if you didn't get it: My lover's got humor. She's the giggle at a funeral. - My lover (the church) has a sense of humor. She (the church) laughs when people die. Knows everybody's disapproval. I should've worshiped her sooner. - (the church) knows everyone disapproves of me, hates me. I should have worshipped (sacrificed) my life to her (the church) sooner. If the Heavens ever did speak. She's the last true mouthpiece. - If God ever was real and spoke to humans. She (the church) is the last sign that God exists. Every Sunday's getting more bleak. A fresh poison each week. - Every Sunday, the day when people go to church, is getting more dark and painful to live through. A fresh layer of poison and pain is applied at the church every week. "We were born sick", you heard them say it. - "We were born gay", you heard the church say we have a disease. My church offers no absolutes. She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom". - My church doesn't allow any impurity and is merciless against those who are considered impure. She (the church) tells me "The bedroom is meant for worshipping God, not for having gay sex." The only Heaven I'll be sent to. Is when I'm alone with you. - I'm not allowed in heaven because I'm gay. That's why the only heaven (joy, happiness, paradise) I will ever experience is when I am alone with my gay partner. I was born sick, but I love it. Command me to be well. - I was born gay and I'm proud of it. Force me to be cured. A-, Amen, Amen, Amen. Take me to church. - Spiritual affirmation. Take me to the church to be sacrificed as a cure for my homosexuality. I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife. - I will be slaughtered and sacrificed like a dog, because the church doesn't consider LGBT people human beings, at the shrine of your lies - referring to the altar and the church glorifying the lies of the bible. I will tell you that I'm gay, and you can prepare the weapon you will use to slaughter me for it. Offer me that deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life. - Offer me access to death without death, also known as heaven, let me into heaven. Good God, murder me and sacrifice me. If I'm a pagan of the good times. My lover's the sunlight. - If I'm an outcast from today's society. My lover (the church) is the sunlight that will burn me to ashes. To keep the Goddess on my side. She demands a sacrifice. - To appease the Goddess (the church) and stay on her good side. She (the church) demands that my impure, homosexual life is ended by being sacrificed to God, referring to homophobic biblical verses like Leviticus 20:13. Drain the whole sea. Get something shiny. - Referring to draining the Holy See, the Vatican. Destroy the Vatican and take back the money and gold that their temples are coated with. Something meaty for the main course. That's a fine looking high horse. - The Vatican, and grandiose cathedrals and churches in general, are a rich and meaty meal for the people. That's a fine looking high horse, also known as moral high-ground. This critiques the moral high-ground the church holds over people, by hoarding wealth and building gold-plated churches while telling the worshippers of God to be humble and immaterialist. And by preaching love and tolerance despite discriminating against LGBT people. What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful. - What does the Vatican have to offer to people? We have a lot of poor and vulnerable believers of God who are starving because of all the money the church has fraudulently scammed and stolen from its believers to line their own greedy pockets. That looks tasty. That looks plenty. This is hungry work. - Referring to butchering the Vatican, and all wealthy churches and cathedrals in general, and feeding (returning) it to the poor and starving whose money was used to build them. Chorus repeated. No masters or kings when the ritual begins. There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin. - It's irrelevant who you are, if you're homosexual, you're still being sacrificed in the ritual. There is nothing sweeter or more innocent than our gentle sin of homosexuality, referring to there being nothing wrong with homosexuality. In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene. Only then I am human. Only then I am clean. - In the horrible acts of violence and oppression that religious people carry out against LGBT people in the name of God. Only then, when I have been murdered and sacrificed to God, I am considered a clean human being instead of a dog.

I met my daughters dad when we both worked at our local deli. He used to put his ear buds in and sing this song often while we worked together and we had many many conversations about the meaning behind these lyrics even throughout our relationship. He passed away in a motorcycle accident dec 15 2023 and today is his funeral. I don’t know if he reminded me of this song or if it’s just something that happened to cross my mind either way it should be remembered.
God bless u xx
Rest in peace😢💔
Daughter dad?
My Condolences.. As a fellow MAN ON 2 WHEELS.. a Motorcycle is FREEDO... Im sorry he diddent make it home to you that day. RIP BROTHER.. RIDE OFF INTO THAT SUNSET 1 MORE TIME.

The lyrics hits me so hard... I was been vibin this song before but now I feel each line of this masterpiece.

People: okay please stay this is your place❤ Demon: okay People: **leaves** Demon: **Goes with them anyway** Demons arent gonna make it obvious they are there so yeah. Demons are fallen angels that uses the form of our passed away loved ones to make us believe ghost exist and the souls of the person we knew still remains here❤❤ Astrology is demonic before my relationship with God I would always do zodiac signs literally just a bunch of sins put into each one I bet if everyone was sinless zodiac signs wouldn't make sense and literally a cover up for demons❤ Hearts are deceitful above all things, listen to God❤ Depression can be a demon you may need deliverance❤ God said unless you're born again spiritually u will not enter the kingdom of heaven also God doesn't judge us by our good works he's judging us by our sins Gods standards are so high he's that HOLY saying oh my God is using Gods name in vain it's called blasphemy ❤ To get to heaven you must believe with all your heart that Jesus died and rose again paid full price for your sins repent and receive his Holy spirit.

“i was born sick, but i love it” hit hard. ❤
The problem today is most people always think that, you only need a good job to get rich... These millionaires are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't know exists...
It's remarkable how long term advantage people like us have gotten trying to be consistently not stupid, instead of trying to be very intelligent
Most times have knowledge or insights about a particular activity that can also be pleasing to exercise. I can boldly say that the Forex market is one of the most profitable money exchange services that elevates investors and their financial status..
Passive income is that key to financial freedom. The time is now you should know you can't achieve your dreams off paycheck...
This is really helpful for my situation!! Thanks everyone I'll text her immediately and give her a head start of $1k .
Success doesn't work overnight..... What most people see at a Glance - Wealth , a great career purpose is the result of hard work and hustle overtime.
*”I’ll tell you my sins, so you can sharpen your knife”* -gave me chills
James 5:16" Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for each other so that you may be healed". Most people; including pastors look at you with disdain upon confession as if THEY are SO HOLY. I stopped going to church years ago and only confess to God, HE is the ONLY ONE whom has the power to forgive me.
@@Cubanqueenx Amen!
@@Rexalicious_Gaming it's true , I tell you no lies
@@Cubanqueenx It's true. Amen🙏
@@Cubanqueenx I invite you to Islam sir , cause we do the same , in Islam there are no barriers between the slave and the God (Allah) , Allah is the merciful and the ever forgiving just keep in mind that the Islam is an extension , update and renewal of Christianity and Judaism(i mean here the real religion that Jesus and Moses came with from Allah Which is basically the Islam and anyone can search about that) and the Islam in his general meaning is the religion of all the prophets who pray to Allah and invited others to workship Allah only Finally, it's just an invitation, and for sure it's your choice , just I hope that you don't listen to what others say about Islam cause Islam is literally the religion of peace, u can give it a chance May Allah guide you to the right path. Be safe .Peace
As a person who has depression, I can't tell if this song makes it better or worse, I can't tell lol. Brilliant lyrics, overall beautiful and has just about the definition of a "haunting" melody.
Call out for Jesus. He’s the only one that can help you. i’ve seen it!
Thank you for this advice, He is my Lord and Savior seeing as how I am Catholic lol. God bless you brother; I shall pray for you.@@danieldias7549

This song somehow feels really nostalgic but I don't know why. 😄
It was released 9 years ago
Because it's timeless. Could be written in every era since the 50's
Whose still listening to this in 2024 ❤🎉
I love this song thank you for making it come alive and I always cry.
I only got to know this song yesterday. The refrain is one of the most beautiful things I've ever encountered.
Sorry
7 months later you still listening
@@zoedyer5139Gladly not. I just listened to it again and I kinda hate it now. It changed my life but I don't wanna look back to the other side of that. It connected with me when I was empty inside to open my eyes to a new truth that I pursued beyond the best this song gave me. I still think of it fondly but I don't feel like listening to it again.
@@potterheadeditz8319Thank you. I'm better now. But it's a really good song nevertheless.
I've known this song by heart since I was a kid, I'm 18 now. it will never get old

This is an anti-religious song btw ☺️
@@SaltySprinklez this song sucks, but sounds good be The lyrics are horrible and are against god Remember, they will mock but they will never have true honor
@@ThePlckIe This song sucks because it calls out the flaws in your religion
@@diogenes5850 what? that it isn’t ez to follow rules and be loyal it’s called discipline and obedience that we don’t run to temptation we resist and stay with God not my fault you’re to weak minded
@@ThePlckIe why should I follow pointless rules? Just to say that I’m disciplined? I discipline myself in things that matter like education, work, and exercising, not a 2000 year old book full of fallacies
I always liked this song. Once you know the lyrics, another level...
Pray-tell, What ARE the lyrics?
@@lovinghim2160The song is actually pretty complicated but Wikipedia has a good background on it. Essentially it was Hosier being frustrated by the Catholic church dominating Irish society and wanting to point out its hypocrisies. With a few examples being how they weaponize your sins said in confidence, and how they tell you that you are “sick” (sinful) from birth and convince you to dedicate yourself to the church through lies. There is also something to be said about an undertone of accepting sexuality and how people are naturally loving and intimate but the church tells you to reject that part of yourself. Calling it sinful and saying you are damned to hell just for indulging in a natural part of human life.
@@omegaonthefly1977 living a life to get you to heaven isn't supposed to be easy and resisting evil temptations and desires is part of it if you can that's good you are strong willed and are willing to sacrifice evil worldly pleasures for eternal life
@@guners4life If you need the promise of a reward after death to show self-restraint and self-respect. Then you aren’t a good human, just a bad human on a leash, but I digress.
This is absolutely ripped from my mind. I feel about this world exactly what this song says. There’s things to believe in and it’s the things we can physically touch and feel. It’s our connections to the ones we love on the deepest levels.
Just like it is I can remember this masterpiece ❤
Great song always loved it since the first time I heard it
me to
This a great song i could here it on repeat all day and night
Love, love, love this song.

Hope you doing well. Fingers crossed n stuff
this song? about two gay men having sex and being murdered by the church? alright
0:56 the best part✝️
you know this isn't a religious song.. right? quite the opposite actually
This song is about how church take advantage of people who are desperate
This isn’t a Christian song, its about religious trauma and a gay couple.
Well this is awkward
They never said it was idiot @@corvuss66

Hits 10,000 times harder knowing he's talking about homosexuality & the Catholic Church. ❤this song!
He’s talking about his hate toward the church. Not for the lgbt thing. Take me a church is a metaphor
Yeah, OK.😬
@@secretaccount9070 Literally no.The song is about religion (to be more specific,christianity) driven homophobia.The official music video dosen't depict gay lovers getting hate-crimed for no reason.
@EvilAutist Yeah, he chose to do something good with the video. He said the actual song is basically about love and sex and how they're tied to humanity and that's it. People just read way too much into a song that's entire message was the same as Locked out of Heaven by Bruno Mars.
Remember when I was a kid I thought this was a Christian song and I played it in front of my dad and he never let me listen to it again I’m 21 and just now listening to it again Lmfaoo
I heard this today and started thinking about what my younger friends would do when i graduate. I started feeling sad knowing that i won't see them for a long time. But at least i found this great song.
Irish solo artist Andrew Hozier Byrne, a.k.a. Hozier, created a stir when he released “Take Me To Church” in 2013. Lyrically, the single is one large metaphor comparing a lover to religion : “Take me to church / I’ll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies / I’ll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife / Offer me that deathless death / Good God, let me give you my life.” The singer-songwriter defined the meaning of the piece : “Sexuality, and sexual orientation - regardless of orientation - is just natural. An act of sex is one of the most human things. But an organization like the Church, say, through its doctrine, would undermine humanity by successfully teaching shame about sexual orientation - that it is sinful, or that it offends God. The song is about asserting yourself and reclaiming your humanity through an act of love.” Hozier pointed out that “Take Me To Church” IS NOT AN ATTACK ON FAITH. He explained : “Coming from Ireland, obviously, there’s a bit of a cultural hangover from the influence of the Church. You’ve got a lot of people walking around with a heavy weight in their hearts and a disappointment […] that [carry] from generation to generation. So the song is just about that - it’s an assertion of self, reclaiming humanity back for something that is most natural and worthwhile.” To date, this is the highest-charting track in the Hot 100’s history with the word “CHURCH” in its title. Culture Club’s “Church of the Poison Mind” (1983) was the previous best. Hozier performed the oeuvre at the 2015 Grammy Awards ceremony, where it was nominated for Song of the Year. Toward the end, he was joined by Scottish icon Annie Lennox, who duetted with him before going into a rousing rendition of “I Put A Spell On You” (2014). SHEER MUSICAL GRANDEUR‼️ 💚🎼💙

@@KiMiRi4you OK…
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. 2 corinthians 5:17
Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 1 john 2:15
9Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral nor idolaters nor adulterers nor male prostitutes nor homosexual offenders 10nor thieves nor the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God. 11And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and by the Spirit of our God. 12"Everything is permissible for me"-but not everything is beneficial. 1 corinthians

Y’all let her innocence remain, this person is too pure😭
@Verdestar227 what does it mean
listening to on repeat button---------->
I was just listening to daylight by David Kushner and it reminded me of Hozier so here I am
When you listen to the song you enjoy but when you understand it hits different
I agree. It describes a romantic relationship in the face of Church discrimination. The song is great, the music, the voice is awesome. The message is sad yet true.
What is Church discrimination & Why¿?
@@lovinghim2160its about a gay guy and the church disagreeing with it
@@lovinghim2160 The "church" is a metaphor for a toxic, abusive relationship with a wicked woman. The "sharpened knife" is betrayal. The "worship like a dog" is trying to please her to no avail, as is the "shrine of her life", he does everything for her and gets nothing in return. "Deathless death" is, of course, him dying inside. without his body physically dying. "Let me give you my life" is him dedicating himself to the woman despite her cruelty. "Pagan of the good times" means he is non-Christian and fornicates and/or cohabitates, as does '"no innocence sweeter than gentle sin". "Madness and soil", of course, is the abuse. "Only then am I human, only then am I clean" is his attachment to the woman.
I love this masterpiece
I can stop listing to it love it so much 💕
