The Secret of an Easy Yoke

I think a lot of Christians (at some point in their lives) can relate to the lyrics of this song. There are so many parts and aspects I find myself relating to I don't know where to start. It has a very melancholy tone but look deeper...

"The Secret of an Easy Yoke" by David Bazan (Pedro the Lion)

i could hear the church bells ringing 
they pealed aloud your praise 
the member's faces were smiling 
with their hands outstretched to shake 
it's true they did not move me 
my heart was hard and tired 
their perfect fire annoyed me 
i could not find you anywhere 
could someone please tell me the story 
of sinners ransomed from the fall 
i still have never seen you, and somedays 
i don't love you at all 

the devoted were wearing bracelets 
to remind them why they came 
some concrete motivation 
when the abstract could not do the same 
but if all that's left is duty, i'm falling on my sword 
at least then, i would not serve an unseen distant lord 

could someone please tell me the story 
of sinners ransomed from the fall 
i still have never seen you, and somedays 
i don't love you at all 
if this only a test 
i hope that i'm passing, cuz i'm losing steam
but i still want to trust you 

peace be still (x3)
