The Lyrics
I got the idea for this parody from Porfle's Private Blog and decided to answer the question posed scripturally...
God in a horse’s head?
Theology is for man of course
But what could you tell a secular horse?
That is of course unless that horse
Like Nietzsche- thinks God is dead!
Go right to the source (Bible) and tell that horse
That Elijah was taken by fiery horse [2 Kings 2:11]
Straight up to heaven from this earth
Of course, God’s not dead!
Armageddon, horses are there
Fighting with two armies,
But as they look into the air
Upon a White horse, the Lord they see!
Heavenly Host rides with Him of course
Each of them riding on a white horse [Rev 19:11-14]
In heaven there’s a place for a horse?
Well, believe in this:
Nietzsche is the one dead…
Theology is for man of course

That is of course unless that horse

Go right to the source (Bible) and tell that horse

Straight up to heaven from this earth
Of course, God’s not dead!
Armageddon, horses are there

But as they look into the air
Upon a White horse, the Lord they see!
Heavenly Host rides with Him of course

In heaven there’s a place for a horse?

I have an entire library of 3300+ books and have plenty that tell of those that have been to the Third Heaven and have seen horses, dogs, and other familiar animals there. I am a firm believer that my German Shepherd Sheeba will be there waiting for me when I enter. Luke 1:37 "For with God, NOTHING shall be impossible". As for the scripture about the animal's soul being in the blood of its meat and it going into the ground, you have to rightly divide the Word. That was speaking of undomesticated animals God allowed man to eat for consumption (post-Eden) and which were divided into clean and unclean categories when YHWH instructed the Israelites on Dietary Laws- NOT domesticated animals and certainly NOT beloved pets.

Wow, I didn't expect a cool musical tribute to Secular Horse! Great work and fitting OS, of course, of course. I expect to see my beloved pets in the great beyond as well.
