Story behind the song
God didn't tell me to write this one, in fact I think he may have tried to stop me...
Lyrics
For God's sake keep God out of warfare
All you Christians, Muslims and Jews
When the armies collide, if He fights for each side
It's a dead cert that God has to lose
He's a right to be getting confused.
For God's sake keep God from disaster
Don't blame him for sending the wave
And when innocents die, it's obscene and a lie
To go thanking Him for being saved,
An endorsement he never made.
For God's sake keep God from your CV
Don't say you're the one He can hear
When the woes of the world everyday are unfurled
And in those He does not interfere
Don't tell me He minds your career.
For God's sake keep God out of terror
When you're ripping the flesh and the bone
When the psychopaths bless a stranger's distress
Those are crimes we commit on our own
No God worth the name would condone.
And with ears open wide there is nowhere to hide
From the din of our fears and desires
Does He long secretly for the day we agree
To let Him grow old gracefully
And out of our mouths to walk free.
For God's sake keep God out of politics
Don't tell me He's guiding your hand
When your sympathy ends with your powerful friends
And your lies and corruption expand
There was no-one but you had it planned.
For God's sake keep God from religion
It's dogma that causes dismay
When a text that was penned far away, who knows when
Dictates all our living today
Then there's nothing that's new He can say.
And with ears open wide there is nowhere to hide
From the din of our fears and desires
Does He long secretly for the day we agree
To let Him grow old gracefully
And out of our mouths to walk free.
