The Lyrics
This is a completely non-comedic rewrite. Nickelback's ignorance and naivety is even more apparent when you see the messages in the music video. Most of the "good" changes they cite are BAD. Nobody can "change the world" for the better without God's help. Dr. George W. Truett: "The one transcending inspiring influence in civilization is the Christian religion... civilization without Christianity is doomed. Let there be...no hesitation or apology for the insistence that the one hope for the individual, the one hope for society...is in the Christian religion." Of course, that "hope" is historically "retrograde" - we are devolving physically, mentally, and spiritually.
From underneath the cross, they watched him die
But He came back to show us why
Now Jesus' blood has washed me white
He died for me. I'm saved tonight
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, He, He's alive
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing
Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen He, Amen He, Amen He, He's alive
When Jesus died, He paid the price
I'll be with Him in paradise
They said he's lost. They were wrong
Cuz they are weak, but He is strong
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died
Cuz God is high above the stars
I realized how low we are
If they would love the Trinity
Imagine how the world would be
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
But nobody cares and nobody tries
And nobody loves and everyone lies
And nobody shares and swallows their pride
We won't see the day when nobody died
Won't see the day, won't see the day
When nobody died
Won't see the day, won't see the day
When nobody died
Won't see the day when nobody died
But He came back to show us why
Now Jesus' blood has washed me white
He died for me. I'm saved tonight
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, He, He's alive
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
And I'm singing
Amen I, Amen I, I'm alive
Amen He, Amen He, Amen He, He's alive
When Jesus died, He paid the price
I'll be with Him in paradise
They said he's lost. They were wrong
Cuz they are weak, but He is strong
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
Singing Amen, I, I'm alive
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
When nobody died
Cuz God is high above the stars
I realized how low we are
If they would love the Trinity
Imagine how the world would be
If everyone cared and everyone tried
If everyone loved and nobody lied
If everyone shared and swallowed their pride
Then we'd see the day when nobody died
But nobody cares and nobody tries
And nobody loves and everyone lies
And nobody shares and swallows their pride
We won't see the day when nobody died
Won't see the day, won't see the day
When nobody died
Won't see the day, won't see the day
When nobody died
Won't see the day when nobody died
John 14:17 "...the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him..."
