I don’t believe in the devil,
And I do not perceive your fictional bud.
I surely don’t need your fear mongering,
I surely don’t need your fear mongering,
Bastardizing all that I love.
Here, I raise my ebenezer,
Here, I raise my ebenezer,
Not fettered by thy false embrace.
No, come thou fount of every blessing,
My consciousness, the watcher’s grace.
I’ve got PTSD from The Bible.
I cringe and I shrink when I hear the word “God”,
I’ve got PTSD from The Bible.
I cringe and I shrink when I hear the word “God”,
For I’ve been neck-deep, and that ghost still haunts me,
Thus I carry that old rugged cross.
Here, I raise my ebenezer,
Not fettered by thy false embrace.
No, come thou fount of every blessing,
My consciousness, the watcher’s grace.
