ApologetiX - If You Really Wanna Get to Heaven

Copied!

{Verse 1}
I never read it in a book
I never thought it on my own
But I heard a Man from Galilee loud and clear make it known

{Chorus}
If you wanna please the Father
You've got to let His Son indwell
If you wanna get to Heaven
You’ve got to save yourself from hell

{Verse 2}
I knew that fella’s name was Pete
I never dreamt he'd be so bold
But I heard him at the rally tryna cleanse my rotten soul

{Chorus}
If you want to know a secret
He got me traumatized as well
If you want to get to Heaven
You’ve got to save yourself from hell

{harmonica lead}

{guitar lead}

{Verse 3}
I never thought I'd preach about Jesus
I never thought I'd be so blunt
But I turned to Him and now I know He's God’s begotten Son

{Chorus}
If you want to speak to strangers
You've got to find a tale to tell
If you want to get to heaven
You've got to save yourself from hell

{harmonica lead}

{Outro}
Do you wanna get to heaven?
Do you wanna get to heaven?
Do you wanna get to heaven?
Do you wanna get to heaven?

Biography

edit bio

ApologetiX (That Christian Parody Band), located in Pittsburgh, PA, was founded in 1992. In the song “We’re in a Parody Band”, ApologetiX refers to itself as a cross between “Weird Al” Yankovic and Billy Graham.

ApologetiX rewrites secular songs with Christian lyrics. They get their unusual name from the word “apologetics”, which means “the defense of the Christian faith.” It is based on the Greek word for defense, “apologia”. The word is used in 1 Peter 3:15, “But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer (defense or "apologia”) to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect…“ (NIV). Their logo, a triquetra, is an ancient symbol of the Holy Trinity.
