Great Gospel Music – ‘The Hand of the Almighty’

Posted by NT Wrong on October 10, 2008

There’s nothing I like more than traditional Country-Gospel singing with male harmony. One of my all-time favorite singer-songwriters is Country-Gospel Great, John R. Butler.

His breakthrough song, “The Hand of the Almighty” has been played on radio stations throughout the country and has become an underground hit among progressive clergy, divinity students and church janitors.

    The Hand of the Almighty (Have a listen here)

    Oh, sinner, do not stray
    From the straight and narrow way
    For the Lord is surely watching what you do
    If you approach the Devil’s den
    Turn ’round don’t enter in
    Lest the hand of the almighty fall on you.

    He’ll fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
    Yes, God will fuck you up
    If you dare to disobey his stern command.
    He’ll fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
    Don’t you know he’ll fuck you up
    So you better do some prayin’ while you can.

    Long ago a man named Lot
    Had a wife he thought was hot
    But she could not stop her black and sinful ways.
    You know it was her own damn fault
    When God turned that bitch to salt.
    That’s the way he used to work back in those days:

    He fucked ’em up (he fucked ’em up)
    He really fucked ’em up
    When the people went and turned their backs on him
    He can fuck you up (he’ll fuck you up)
    No shit he’ll fuck you up
    Just like he fucked the people up back then.

    I used to have a friend named Ray
    Who walked that evil way
    He cursed and drank and broke his neighbor’s fence
    You know Ray was full aware
    That some sheep were over there
    And he knew them in the Biblical sense.

    God fucked him up (he fucked him up)
    He went and fucked Ray up
    Went and paid him back for all his wicked sins.
    He fucked him up (he fucked him up)
    Fucked that boy completely up
    Now he’s married to a Presbyterian

Yee-haaarrrr, now that’s preaching the true Gospel message of The Damnation of The Many. You can purchase this high quality Country-Gospel music here.

    Check out Jim White’s song

    “God Was Drunk When He Made Me”

    Jesus and the fiery furnace.
    Devil and the deep blue sea.
    Preacher say I’m gonna burn in hell for all eternity.

    But when I have my judgement day and I lock eyes with my savior, well,
    This is what I’m gonna tell him when he asks about my behavior…

    I’m gonna say;
    God was drunk when he made me.
    God was drunk when he made me.
    God was drunk when he made me.
    And that’s why I’m so crazy.
    Jesus and the fiery furnace.
    Devil and the deep blue sea.
    God was drunk when he made me…but that’s okay ’cause I forgive Him.

    See if it was God who made forgiveness, then before that he musta made sin.
    And who built the house of brotherly love, then let the Devil come dancing in?

    If it was God that saved the miracle child from the peril of the fiery flame,
    Well then it musta been him that killed the two hundred others just to glorify
    His name

    That’s why I say;
    God was drunk when he made me.
    God was drunk when he made me.
    God was drunk when he made me.
    And that’s why I spout heresy.
    Jesus and the fiery furnace,
    Devil and the deep blue sea.
    God was drunk when he made me but that’s okay…’cause I forgive Him.
