Frank Turner - Glory Hallelujah lyrics
[Frank Turner - Glory Hallelujah lyrics]
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 no 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
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
No cowering in the dark
Before some overbearing priest
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 never
Spread a drop of love
No finger pointing justified by
Phantoms up above
Because there never was no God
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
And I know you're scared of
Dying, man, and I am, too
But just pretending it's not happening
Isn't gonna see us through
If we accept that there's an end game
And we haven't got much time
Then in the here and now then we
Can try and do things right
We'll be our own salvation army
And together we believe
In all the wondrous things that
Mere mortals can achieve
Well, 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 no God
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
One more time
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
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 no 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
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
No cowering in the dark
Before some overbearing priest
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 never
Spread a drop of love
No finger pointing justified by
Phantoms up above
Because there never was no God
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
And I know you're scared of

But just pretending it's not happening

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
