In the Name of God |
How can this be? |
Why is he the chosen one? |
Saint gone astray |
With a scepter and a gun |
Learn to believe |
In the mighty and the strong |
Come bleed the beast |
Follow me it won’t be long |
Listen when the prophet |
Speaks to you |
Killing in the name of God |
Passion |
Twisting faith into violence |
In the name of God |
Straight is the path |
Leading to your salvation |
Slaying the weak |
Ethnic elimination |
Any day we’ll all be |
Swept away |
You’ll be saved |
As long as you obey |
Lies |
Tools of the devil inside |
Written in holy disguise |
Meant to deceive and divide |
Us all |
Listen when the prophet |
Speaks to you |
Killing in the name of God |
Passion |
Twisting faith into violence |
In the name of God |
Blurring the lines |
Between virtue and sin |
They can’t tell |
Where God ends |
And mankind begins |
They know no other |
Life but this |
From the cradle |
They are claimed |
Listen when the prophet |
Speaks to you |
Killing in the name of God |
Passion |
Twisting faith into violence |
In the name of God |
Hundreds of believers |
Lured into a doomsday cult |
All would perish |
In the name of God |
Self-proclaimed messiah |
Led his servants |
To their death |
Eighty murdered |
In the name of God |
Forty sons and daughters |
Un-consenting plural wives |
Perversions |
In the name of God |
Underground religion |
Turning toward |
The mainstream light |
Blind devotion |
In the name of God |
Justifying violence |
Citing from the holy book |
Teaching hatred |
In the name of God |
Listen when the prophet |
Speaks to you |
Killing in the name of God |
Passion |
Twisting faith into violence |
In the name of God |
Religious beliefs |
Fanatic obsession |
Does following faith |
Lead us to violence? |
Unyielding crusade |
Divine revelation |
Does following faith |
Lead us to violence? |
Mine eyes have seen the glory |
Of the coming of the Lord |
He is trampling out the vintage |
Where the grapes of wrath are stored |
He hath loosed the fateful lightning |
Of his terrible swift sword |
His truth is marching on |
Glory, glory, hallelujah |
Glory, glory, hallelujah |
Glory, glory, hallelujah… |
