[Da’ T.R.U.T.H., Dr. Ravi Zacharias - Religion lyrics]
Yeah so many religions in this world
Man, can we really know?
I was raised in a Christian home
Pacing through different rooms
Son of a preacher man
Faith that is been assumed
Brainwashed in my youth, take time to choose
Money or Bible college in
Train rides to school
Playing follow-the leader
What am I to believe?
Did I blindly believe when I
Got a Bible to read?
Then I got down on my knees
As the one way to God dropped down to plead
A total waste of my time?
Is his name a lie or is his name Allah?
Is it really important
The right name or not?
Can Christ save a life if
The white man advanced it?
I'm not taking chances
My flight plans is canceled
I call up my pastor, he might have the answer
I might scratch the surface but
Is the surface enough?
Know the truth is the truth whether
We believe it or not
So find me a place to park
Cause, I'm circling around the block
He thinks all these other religions
All teach the same things
He obviously doesn't have
An understanding of these religions
Pantheism doesn't teach
The same thing as theism monotheism
Monotheistic beliefs are not all the same
What Islam believes about
Allah and what the Christian believes about
The Triune God are two different things all
Religions, at best, are
Superficially similar
But they are fundamentally different
I understand what the feel when
They say that religion kills
Africa, slave trade
The walls that the Christians built
Bible used for oppression
The West on a mission field
Hindu rebels, the churches they striking
The blood spills when the blow up the
Mosques Islamic fighters respond
Once they strap on a bomb
Intensive fighters arise
All for the glory, Jihad
Japanese empires ruled with the iron rod
But is it the will of God?
They say Abrahamic religions the cause
Of hate and division
Tell me to which god should I
Pray and ask for forgiveness
Before I jump off the cliff
Make a drastic decision
If I believe in your god will
He make a dramatic difference?
Can you answer that question?
Am I playing roulette?
Would I still be a saint if
I wasn't raised in the West?
How many paths to God? If it's
One I'm taking my steps
Hope he's still open to talk to
Me when I'm facing my death
Christianity is not the same as
Who Christ is in fact
When Peter took out his sword to
Cut off the ear of
The high priest's servant
What did Jesus do? Put it back not
Only did he get him to put the sword back
He got to put the ear back it is
Both inaccurate and false what
He is concluding
Is it dangerous to be exclusive?
Can we know what the truth is?
"When I'm old enough to decide" huh?
Will I be bold enough to deny
Everything I was taught when I'm
Making my own conclusions
I pray it's not an illusion
Country with many religions
They all look the same on the surface but
At the core, they are fundamentally different
We all on this journey together
And I know that there's a God out
There that can make my eternity better
Man, can we really know?
I was raised in a Christian home
Pacing through different rooms
Son of a preacher man
Faith that is been assumed
Brainwashed in my youth, take time to choose
