Lyrics Crystal Bowersox – Hellbent
Text:
«I don’t get to decide who goes to heaven.
I—I—The almighty God decides who goes to heaven.
I think they pray to a false God.»
You must be happy now
Where men and children laying cold in the dirt
Mothers and fathers putting seeds in the earth
You must be something now
You’re speaking His word
In every language but a lover
This is what He would have wanted
You claim to know
We’re hunting the hunted
His sights are hellbent on hell below
«The only option for them is to become a suicide bomber.»
The kingdom is coming like a runaway train
Words of the prophets melt like mud in the rain
Such a small price
Just a little more pain
Now vict’ry’s comin’ like a cold winter’s day
It’s white like the ashes of a lover
«Terrorists who are hellbent on destroying our nation.»
«I think they pray to a false God.»
This is what He wanted
Don’t you know?
We’re hunting the hunted
His sights are hellbent on hell below
This is what He wanted
You swear you know
And if anyone else thinks they know better than He
My God, my God, I’ll pray for your soul
«I don’t get to decide who goes to heaven.
I—I—The almighty God decides who goes to heaven.»
«And I pray they will be comforted by a power greater than any of us.
Spoken through the ages in Psalm 23:
«Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I fear no evil, for You are with me.»
We go forward to defend freedom
And all that is good and just in our world.
Thank you. Good night, and God bless America.»
