Glory Hallelujah

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Brothers and sisters, have you heard the news? The storm has lifted and there's nothing to lose So swap your confirmation for your dancing shoes Because there never was a god Step out of the darkness and onto the streets Forget about the fast, let's have a carnival feast Raise up your lowered head and hear the liberation beat Because there never was no god [Chorus] There is no god So clap your hands together There is no god No heaven and no hell There is no god We're all in this together There is no god So ring that victory bell [Verse 2] No cowering in the dark before these overbearing priests No waiting until we die until we restitute the meek No blaming all our failings on imaginary beasts Because there never was no god No fighting for a land your distant fathers told you of No spilling blood for those who have never spread a drop of love No finger pointing justified by phantoms up above Because there never was a god [Chorus] There is no god So clap your hands together There is no god No heaven and no hell There is no god We're all in this together There is no god So ring that victory bell [Bridge] I know you're scared of dying, man, and I am, too But pretending it ain't happening won't see us through If we accept that there's an end game and we don't have much time Then in the here and now we can try and do things right Our own salvation army, and together we believe In all the wondrous things mere mortals can achieve I've known beauty in the stillness of cathedrals in the day I've sung, "Glory Hallelujah! Won't you wash my sins away?" But now I'm singing my refrain, and this is what I say I say there never was a god [Chorus] There is no god Let's get the clap together There is no god No heaven and no hell There is no god We're all in this together There is no god So ring that victory bell
