Glory Hallelujah - Frank Turner

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

Cowering in the dark before some overbearing priest
Not waiting until we die until we restitute the weak
Blaming all our failings on imaginary beasts
Because there never was no God

Fighting over land your distant fathers told you of
Not spilling blood of those who never spread a drop of love
The 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

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 endgame 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 a day
I've sung glory hallelujah, washed 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
