The Earth,                                                           ­                                                                 ­   Rejoice,
Just a speck,                                                           ­                                                                 ­To the Lord,
Dust floating through the air.                                                             ­                    For I have found Him now.
Insignificant.                                                  ­                                                                 ­   And feelings are felt.

Life,                                                     ­                                                                 ­                   Love,
seems pointless.                                                       ­                                                               To­ the Lord,
What are we living for?                                                             ­                              For He shall now save me,
For pleasure? For love?                                                            ­                                              And let me see.

The Sins,                                                            ­                                                                 ­    The Sins,
committed,                                                 ­                                                                 ­           committed,
by my fellow men.                                                             ­                                                    by my fellow men.

Nothing matters.                                                         ­                                                       Everything­ matters.
We live, we die.                                                             ­                                                          We live, we die.
There's nothing left to                                                               ­                                              Make the most of
Love.                                                         ­                                                                 ­              Life.

No God,                                                             ­                                                                 ­     My Lord,
to save us                                                               ­                                                                 ­ to save us
from the doom and gloom                                                            ­                              from eternal damnation
living in this world.                                                           ­                                                      living in this world.

The Earth,                                                           ­                                                                 ­    Rejoice!
non-believing,                                      ­                                                                 ­                   Believe
merely existing.                                                        ­                                                               and exist.
Life.                                                     ­                                                                 ­                    Life
