Emphasis mine.
For some songs (like "We're not gonna take it"), only knowing the chorus explains why many people might miss the point. "Take Me to Church" doesn't even offer that saving grace.
Maybe they listened to one of the covers that seemingly obliviously changes the line to "the shrine of your light"
...of course that would be a thing. What'd they make of "so you can sharpen your knives"?
I don't think the people who do things like that actually pay attention to what they're doing. It's like a subconscious reflex for small-time Christian singers, or something.
