The Jehovah's Witnesses Version of "Amazing Grace"

Note: This video is meant to be a parody directed at the use of language by the Watchtower society in it's magazines and books. It is not meant in any way to persecute anyone. This is for entertainment value only. If you are a Jehovah's Witness who lacks a sense of humor, don't bother watching this video.

The uncopyrighted sound clip wasn't long enough to fit all the lyrics, so I had to shorten it.

Full lyrics:

The sacred secret of undeserved kindness,
how palatable the concept, that redeemed an undesirable person such as I....
I once lacked intellectual capacity but now I have obtained understanding, once lacked the ability to make use of my visual faculties, but now I have obtained the ability to see.

It was undeserved kindness that brought me to a place of sacred service.
And undeserved kindness which brought relief.
Of what great value did that undeserved kindness come into being
The time period in which I obtained intellectual capacity.

During the course of many unsafe situations, temptations, and obstacles, we have arrived.
It was undeserved kindness that has transported us to a condition of being safe until this point, and undeserved kindness will lead us to our residence.

Jehovah has bargained well with me.
He reassures me with his magazines and endless supply of books..
He is as a protective device, and a ration,
as long as I have the breath of life in me.

After ten thousand years of existence, producing light as the solar object.
We lack no time at all in which to take in knowledge of Jehovah,
Than we did at the start of things.

The sacred secret of undeserved kindness, how palatable the concept.
That redeemed an undesirable person such as I.
I once lacked intellectual capacity but now I have obtained understanding, once lacked the ability to make use of my visual faculties, but now I have obtained the ability to see.

Amazingly boring. I at least expected something that rhymed, even if it didn't scan.

[ChristopherLaRock]

the language used by JWs is boring. Blame the watchtower.

[WaitingforChrist]

The lyrics remind me of Masonic rites! lol ... well maybe not Freemasonry, but that of a generic cult nonetheless.

[ChristopherLaRock]

LOL

I basically took the Christendom expressions used in "Amazing Grace", and replaced them with their New World Translation equalivants.

The JW publications do tend to use a 50 cent word where a 10 cent word would do.

[Acidlicious]

You're obviously a disassociated JW's, and probably think you were "wrongly" done. Most of if not all of your videos have some type of religious undertone. The sad part is you no nothing about these religions. I take that back, you know what Google search says about them, or Wikipedia has to say or comment on them. Your a disgrace as a person, and to Youtube.

[johnsmithbsc]

You're just being silly. What makes one word more boring than another?

And BTW, the language in these lyrics is not like that in the Watchtower - the stuff in the Watchtower is grammatically correct, unlike the phrase, "redeemed an undesirable person such as I." The pronoun at the end of that sentence is the object, not the subject. The Watchtower would never contain a mistake like saying 'I' when it should say 'me'.

A deft parody of the New World Translations's bloated prose. Great!

[Canislupes7]

ah so this is a joke....thought you were serious for a second there....
