ApologetiX - Proving My Religion - Rare Not Well Done

Parody of R.E.M.'s "Losing My Religon
"
This is a song from an only downloadable cd in Apologetix.com called "Rare Not Well Done"

- these songs are rare and live up to their name

Lyrics:
Parody of "Losing My Religion" performed by REM and written by Bill Berry, Peter Buck, Mike Mills & Michael Stipe
(1 Peter 3:15; Jude 1:3)
NOTE: This song was recorded live on Cornerstone Television's nationally syndicated show "Getting Together," in Wall PA, on April 18, 1995. It was originally released on a homemade cassette called "Live '95."

Christ is bigger, bigger than you and you can mock me
For things that I will go through but Christians never die
Although we sinned so much He saved us all

You back me in a corner
You pack me in a box 'cause you think I'm religious
I'm trying to speak the truth
And I don't wanna complicate it
God loved this world so much He sent His only son

Although we deserved the lashes
Although we deserved the pain
We 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, do you?
You love your sin too much to give it up
Consider this, you hipocrits listen a bit to me
Consider this well what do you believe?
Well, God is not some fantasy that we
Made up for fun
He really sent His Son

Although I deserved the lashes
Although I deserved the pain
I sin so bad I should have died

But that was just the thing
That was just the thing
So mock me if you wanna
Attack 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 pain
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

1 Peter 3:15
But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect ...
