I Wonder What the Bee Gees Think..

I was sitting here last night with Darkstar flipping through the channels. We got to the block of God Channels and I was talking about how far the religious have come in getting the message across.

A few nights ago I ran across a rock-opera called "Hero" that was about Jesus and it was pretty well done. Hard rock, rap, a little of everything but I ended up watching almost an hour.

Then we were flipping through the XM channels on the TV and got to the Jesus channels. We heard what we thought was "Staying Alive" but it seemed sort of weird to hear that on a Jesus channel.

Turns out it's actually "Stay in the Light" and it's pretty trippy.

I even went and found the lyrics but you HAVE to sing along as if it's "Staying Alive," okay?

Here goes:

Well, you can tell by the way I used to walk
I was once a man with no time for God
Knew about the risen Lord
But didn't check Him out until I got bored

And then I saw the light, I got saved
I used to look for other ways
But given time, I'd understand
I knew the Bible had the plan

Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You should stay in the light, stay in the light
Even when you're shaken you're never God-forsaken
If you stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah ah ah ah, stay in the light, stay in the light

Well, the Bible was divinely inspired
And if you can't believe it, you need to try
Got the things of Heaven all can use
And a plan for man we just can't lose

You say "It's all right, it's OK"
He'll let you be your stubborn way
But Jesus Christ is comin', man
I know your times are in His hands

Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You should stay in the light, stay in the light
Even when you're shaken you never fall to Satan
If you stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah ah ah ah, stay in the light, stay in the light

I'm going forward, Psalm 119
The Bible is my lamp
I'm going homeward, the Bible lights my path
So stay in the light!

Well, you can tell by the way I used to walk
I was once a man with no time for God
And you may doubt that it's for sure
But I'm a Christian now since I'm reborn

And say, it's all right, it's OK
And you may look for other ways
You need the light to understand
So use your Bible as your lamp

Whether you're in trouble or livin' in a bubble
You should stay in the light, stay in the light
Even when you're shaken, Ephesians 5 verse 8
Says stay in the light, stay in the light
Ah ah ah ah, stay in the light, stay in the light

You have to be laughing, come on and admit it.

Next up is "Bethlehamian Rhapsody."

1. They were always lyrics that completely passed over my head and I never really tried to listen.

   Now that they’re nailed down in text…

   Yeah, I’ll be somewhere in the nine circles. Laughing.

2. Yes, I realise its a parody.

   I just don’t think its any worse than the original ‘I caught my nuts in the fly’ version.

   I’m still going to laugh.
