"I went to visit a church, it was quiet as it could be"
•What's wrong with that? Some of my greatest spiritual encounters have been in the silence of hearing the still, small voice of God.

"Nobody was praising the Lord"
•How the heck do you know??? Praise is something that happens for God Almighty, not so someone can watch and issue their approval!! Praise is in the silence as well! Praise happens when I treat the waitress well, when I'm considerate in traffic, when I'm cordial to the neighbor.

"Nobody but me"
•Well flippin' bully for you. Is this all about YOU?? You're better than everyone else? What a joke.

"But when I come to church I don't just come to take up space."
•And everyone else does? Wow, you really are impressed with yourself, aren't you? I'm thankful for every person who attends our church who "takes up space". It's an opportunity for them to have an encounter with God.

Well, NOW, it seems like you don't care for that song very much.
