Beau - Shoeless in the Desert - Beau

The Atheist Hymn

The words are inscribed as the stories are told
Engraved and defended, we bind them in gold
In fear of the fire
And the poor sightless wraith
So myth becomes legend
Devotion and faith

And so we explain what lies under the stone
Let Y be the question and X the unknown

Let light fall upon us
And where there is none
The answer is all
To the power of one

And there with the flock as I listened and heard
The learned ones strive to interpret the Word
I stood and relinquished
The shackle of youth
As I rose to greet
The simple truth

That faith is belief that is tempered with need
Yes, faith is belief that is tempered with need
And I have no faith
For I have no need
And so I am free
To disbelieve

Faith is belief that is tempered with need
Yes, faith is belief that is tempered with need
And I have no faith
For I have no need
And so I am free
To disbelieve
