On the streets of the infidels, where the churches toll unholy bells He pauses to survey the ungodly mire His breath comes fast and short, as he grips the pull cord taught to visit upon them god's own holy fire And mothers smile, and children play, unaware on this deadly day that this man is buying Heaven with their lives   So he stares into their eyes, with a hatred born of fire Unleashing hell in exchange for ****** paradise   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That we should love our neighbour and forgive our enemies So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     Now there's a mighty Superchurch down in Alabama, and the pastor there he'll cleanse you from your sin He'll cure your cancer and make you well, grant you success, save you from Hell, if you drop your divine dollars in the tin But if you ain't playin ball with Mr Holy, and his fiery sermon fails to make you well Then instead of blessed health and wealthy endeavours, he'll leave you to barbecue in good old hell But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That what we received so freely, we should share without a profit So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     There are men who thinks it's divine to violate children, and to use the western ****** for their own desires And they claim that they're the instrument of Heaven, and that *** can be used to cleanse, just like fire Yet the very books they use for validation, speak of kindness, love and God's own mercy mild And they denounce the hypocrites who cry “defilement”, when they themselves, when abusing are so defiled But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That there is not a man among us fit to pass a judgement So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name       As the flags of nations unfurl for the warzone, and the cries of freedom echo through the spree Both combatants boast of weapons of hell's fury, that will burn a city from all memory And both sides will claim the right, that they are the just ones in this fight While the children trust in them to set them free   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same That if we use a sword then God himself will cut us down So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     So don't you soak His name in blood, and don't you sell Him to the poor Stop your wars and your vendettas, cause He's not with you any more   And He don't recognize your flags, cause they divide His unity He uses persuasion, not invasion, and He gives his love for free Yes the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same They clearly cry the same Justify it any way you like Call it anything you like But don't do it in God's name! "The hour is coming when everyone who kills you will think he has offered a sacred service to God. But they will do these things because they have not come to know either the Father or me." - John 16.2

Not In His Name
On the streets of the infidels, where the churches toll unholy bells He pauses to survey the ungodly mire His breath comes fast and short, as he grips the pull cord taught to visit upon them god's own holy fire And mothers smile, and children play, unaware on this deadly day that this man is buying Heaven with their lives   So he stares into their eyes, with a hatred born of fire Unleashing hell in exchange for ****** paradise   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That we should love our neighbour and forgive our enemies So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     Now there's a mighty Superchurch down in Alabama, and the pastor there he'll cleanse you from your sin He'll cure your cancer and make you well, grant you success, save you from Hell, if you drop your divine dollars in the tin But if you ain't playin ball with Mr Holy, and his fiery sermon fails to make you well Then instead of blessed health and wealthy endeavours, he'll leave you to barbecue in good old hell But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That what we received so freely, we should share without a profit So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     There are men who thinks it's divine to violate children, and to use the western ****** for their own desires And they claim that they're the instrument of Heaven, and that *** can be used to cleanse, just like fire Yet the very books they use for validation, speak of kindness, love and God's own mercy mild And they denounce the hypocrites who cry “defilement”, when they themselves, when abusing are so defiled But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels, they all say the same That there is not a man among us fit to pass a judgement So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name       As the flags of nations unfurl for the warzone, and the cries of freedom echo through the spree Both combatants boast of weapons of hell's fury, that will burn a city from all memory And both sides will claim the right, that they are the just ones in this fight While the children trust in them to set them free   But our Father who's in Heaven didn't ask that For the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same That if we use a sword then God himself will cut us down So, justify it any way you like, just don't do it in God's name     So don't you soak His name in blood, and don't you sell Him to the poor Stop your wars and your vendettas, cause He's not with you any more   And He don't recognize your flags, cause they divide His unity He uses persuasion, not invasion, and He gives his love for free Yes the Psalms, the Prophets and the Gospels all say the same They clearly cry the same Justify it any way you like Call it anything you like But don't do it in God's name!
