BLESSED SUBTRACTION

Sing along with this relevant and timely new hymn written in honor of Mark Driscoll’s brand new “Blessed Subtraction” dogma.

Blessed subtraction this church is mine!
You’d better get yourself back into line!
Don’t disagree here, don’t make a fuss,
Or I will throw you under the bus!

Chorus:This is my vision, this is my creed,
Slaughtering sheep who have disagreed
This is my mission, this is my creed,
Making up dogma, indulging my greed.

Blessed subtraction, empty your brain
What’s in your wallets, Driscoll shall gain
Bible discussions will soon be in vain
As Driscoll hits metal – and runs over saints

Grease in his hair, it stands in a point.
Dressed like a biker in a beer joint.
He cusses and gestures, his sermons can linger.
If you don’t like him, he’ll give you the finger.

Driscoll’s receiving, visions from God;
Don’t you start hating, on your dumb blog;
Blessed subtraction, bodies are stacked,
Biblical preaching’s a thing of the past.

Blessed subtraction, all is at rest
According to Driscoll, he is the best
Watching the big screen, that’s in his head
Who needs the bible, by vision we’re led

Chorus:This is my vision, this is my creed,
Slaughtering sheep who have disagreed
This is my mission, this is my creed,
Making up dogma, indulging my greed.
