To Mr. and Mrs. Atheist
(V1)
To Mr. and Mrs. Atheist,
You who say there is no God
That everything was made by accident
Surely you were there long before the world was made
To gather wisdom for your song and dance
You say God isn’t real
Yet your rebellion and your sin
Reinforce his holy existence
Tell me, what do you stand to gain at the end of your life
When denying the truth is your insistence?
(Chorus 1)
Can you drain the oceans with a tiny straw
Or spin the world on your finger like a basketball?
Can you light up the heavens with a candlestick
Or harpoon a whale with a toothpick?
Can you make the wind stop
With your mighty hand
Or carry all the weight of the world’s sin?
Without God, how can you do anything?
When you can’t even breathe
You can’t even breathe without him
Woe to Mr. and Mrs. Atheist
(V2)
To Mr. and Mrs. Atheist,
You strive to oppose our prayer
Why does the name of Jesus make you cringe?
If you cover up your eyes and stuff cotton in your ears
Can you stop a wild bear on a binge?
You could say that there’s no gravity but a rock still falls
And truth doesn’t change with injustice
You have no excuse when you say there is no God
‘Cause his glory is in everything around us
(Chorus 2)
God can drain the oceans with a tiny straw
Or spin the world on His finger like a basketball
He can light up the heavens with a candlestick
Or harpoon a whale with a toothpick
God can make the wind stop
With His mighty hand
He carried all the weight of the world’s sin
Without God, how can you do anything?
When you can’t even breathe
You can’t even breathe without him
Woe to Mr. and Mrs. Atheist
