Proving My Religion
Parody of "Losing My Religion" by REM
(1 Peter 3:15, Jude 1:3, James 2:18-19)
Christ is bigger, bigger than you - and you might mock me
For things that I will go through - but Christians never die
Although we sinned too much - He saved us all
You back me in a corner
You pack me in a box - like - you think I'm religious
I'm trying to speak - the truth
And I don't want to convolute it
God loved this world so much - He sent His only Son
Although I deserved the lashes
Although I deserved the sting
I sin so bad we should have died
If you would listen - give me just an hour
I'd prove what I'm professin'
Why I believe that Christ is true
But you don't want to find the truth -- no
You love your sin too much - to give it up
He did exist
The kicker is: He doesn't cease to be
Legitmate when agnostics do not see
Well, God is not some fantasy we just
Made up for fun
He really sent - His Son
Although I deserved the lashes
Although I deserved the sting
I sin so bad I should have died
But that was just the thing
That was just the thing
So bash me if you're gonna
Trash me if you want - I'm - proving my religion
By everything I do
And I don't think that I can lose it
Oh, no, I've seen too much - to ever give it up
Although I deserved the lashes
Although I deserved the sting
I sinned so bad I should have died
That was just the thing
Christ died, so I could rise
That was just the thing, just the thing
Just the thing ... for me
