Silent Tree Music - Song Lyrics 

( Ironic religious song lyrics )
MY GOD, YOUR GOD
Copyright © 1998 - mickterry.com

CHORUS:
My God, your god,
could it be they're all the same?
My God, your god,
'though She's called by different names?
With a thousand different visions
of just what we want to see,
with a thousand different versions
of just what a god should be.
My God, your god:
if you'd just believe like me.

1: & Man created God in his very own image,
to his own specifications, however envisioned,
leaving no room for error or difference or change
as he tries to make sense, as he tries to explain.

2: & Man created God in his very own likeness,
to his own sets of rulings of wrongness & rightness.
Leaving no room for doubt as to what we should prove,
& you're damned if you don't & you're damned if you do.
CHORUS:

BRIDGE:
& you'd better believe, yes, you'd better believe
that all my God tells you is true.
& you'd better believe, yes , but don't be deceived
by what anyone else tries to sell you.
'Cause there's evil that's lurking in cunningly cloaking
disguises to distract you away
from the Truth that I offer & the ways you can prosper
in what only my God has to say.

3: & man created God in his very own words,
& if you don't agree, then it's you that's absurd.
& so many have died for one god or the other.
Is this really the way all these gods would prefer?
CHORUS:
