Viewing lyrics for Atheist's Gospel by Steve Gilbert.

Well when I was a young man
I had lots of worries on my mind
About the fires of Hell
And that spirit up in the sky
So when I was at my lowest
I turned my thoughts to Jesus
To see what kind of answers I could find

Now, preacher said, 'Son
The Lord has a master plan.
You don't do right by him
He's a-gonna cast you down.'
I said, 'Preacher man,
I gotten by just fine without him
And those threats, they don't scare me anyhow'

chorus:
I got science

To sheild me from superstition
I got logic
To steer me through my life
And I got no fears
About what happens when I die
And there ain't no god gonna make me change my mind

So, the preacher said, 'Son
You're bound for that lake of fire
With those gays and those sinners
the fornicators and liars.'
I said, 'Preacher man,
That sounds like one hell of a party.
Get your hand outta that donation plate
And I'll see you down there.

repeat chorus

I know this old world
Can be so dark and scary
I know you want to find
Your answers where you can
But toss out those Bibles
And see this world in all its beauty
Don't spend your time worrying
About judgement day
