[Verse 1]
Religion, is the attempt
On the part of human beings
To establish a right relationship
Between themselves
And something outside themselves!
Something they think to be of life-shaping importance!

[Verse 2]
In spite of the fact!
That the good news of Jesus Christ
Has been seen as a religion by outsiders
And has been sold as one by its adherents
It is not a religion at all!

[Verse 3]
Rather, it is the announcement
Of the end of religion!
It is the announcement
Of the end of religion!
It is the announcement
Of the end of religion!

[Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh
