Prayers Of An Atheist - Beth Nielsen Chapman

If love could say God’s name

We’d hear a trillion sounds

Choirs from the balconies

And grass grow through the ground

The sound would ring so true

As every fist uncurled

One human family

All across the world

The prayers of an atheist

Sent from the emptiness

Even they find the way back home

If love could say God’s name

And we would just be still

Silence would start to sing

And nature reveal God’s will

The prayers of an atheist

Sent from the emptiness

Even they find the way back home

If love could say God’s name

How could we not behold

One light, one peace, one grace

Shining in every soul
