Romans 1:20
Parody of "Running on Empty" by Jackson Browne
(Romans 1:18-25; 1 Corinthians 1:19-21, 3:18-20)

Lookee now back in Romans chapter one, if you will
Look at that and it's clear God provided so many signs, I feel
If you find Romans 1:18 then you're settin' up what I want
I don't know where you're readin' now but just come along

Come along
Romans 1:20 -- come along
Come and find
Come along
Romans 1:21 -- come and study the lines

God gave proof unto Man yet the people closed their eyes
Science often confuses the truth with some beautiful lies
They've hypnotized almost everyone and they call us rogues, I know
I don't know why they won't turn onto the Romans Road

Come along
Romans 1:20 -- come along
Come and find
Come along
Romans 1:21 -- come and study the lines
LEAD

Everyone does know -- and the Word does show
People seek some reason to believe
I don't know just how anyone can't see
If they ain't got sight -- that would seem all right
But other senses besides inform our beliefs

Lookee now, back in Romans chapter one, if you will
I do not have to tell you all just how atheists have appeal
Lookin' round for the answers I could determine who told me the truth
Lookin' into their writings I see there's nothing new

Come along
Romans 1:20 -- come along
Come and find
Come along
Romans 1:21 -- come and study the lines

What they do's really tempting, you know, they make it look so fine
They love to sniff around, but they're dumb and they're blind
(Come along)
You know, I don't even know how to open their minds
Come and find
Romans 1:21 -- come and study the lines

Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God's invisible qualities—his eternal power
and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been
made, so that people are without excuse.
