Jesus Christ and His Quest For Glory

When I was a kid I was told about God,

A horrible spiteful

Vengeful old sod.

Destroying unbelievers

He'd tear them limb from limb

Smiting all those people

With another god than Him.

It's the same old God

For Muslims and Jews

Except one can't have bacon

The other no booze.

And just so we'd know

That God was the boss

He had His own Son

Nailed to a cross.

Ever since that time

Those who follow the Son

Have taught the world love

Through the barrel of a gun.

They taught the world guilt

And taught the world shame

Of sexual desire

Not oppression and pain.

I can't tell you what to believe

I wouldn't know where to start

Respect each other

And follow your heart.
