Never before tonight did I think I could kill a man

And sink a knife deep into skin,

But I could kill you.

Surely I could wreck you,

Because you wrecked them.

You rapists, you abusers,

You thieves, you murderers.

I've taken my look around

And all I've seen leads me to believe

That if I was God,

Heaven would be nearly empty

And Hell would be overflowing.



So thank God that I'm not God,

And praise Him for being nothing like me.

I would have forsaken man.

So praise Him for being nothing like me,

'Cause I would have let this world burn.



If I was God, I would do unto you things unthinkable,

Far beyond cruel and unusual.



So thank God that I'm not God,

And praise Him for being nothing like me.

I would have forsaken man.

So praise Him for being nothing like me.



For those who ask,

He gives His grace kindly.

His forgiveness is beyond me.

I would have let this world burn.

And even to the most perverted man,

And even to the most wretched man,

His glory and mercy is given.
