When your first love got stolen away You took God’s name in vain After you lost your very best friend You cursed Him again and again Pre All that wrong thinkin I've been there Angry as hell at the Man Upstairs Ch But If life gives you lemons Not peaches Make meringe pie with Jesus Your words are like skippin stones Headin for the Holy Ghost Try out the 11th Commandment Cuz one day you'll be leaving And don't throw rocks at heaven v2 Some days I get to talking trash Fall from grace and land on my ass Stop believing in Creation And start showing the devil my appreciation Pre But every time I close my eyes and say a prayer Damned if the Lord don’t answer it, I swear Ch But If life gives me lemons Not peaches I'll make meringe pie with Jesus My words are like skippin stones Headin for the Holy Ghost I'll try out the 11th Commandment Cuz one day I'll be leaving And don't throw rocks at heaven Bridge The Lord’s house is a glass ceiling What goes up must come down Watch that name calling going around Ch And If life gives us lemons Not peaches Will make meringe pie with Jesus Our words are like skippin stones Headin for the Holy Ghost Try out the 11th Commandment Cuz one day will be leaving Don't throw rocks And don't throw rocks at heaven Tag When your first love got stolen away You took God’s name in vain https://hearthis.at/elvis-nash-xk/davebob12-acoustic-guitar-mixed/6aZ/

Style and context makes all the difference lol Good one, Elvis! If life gives you lemons 'stead of peaches Make lemon meringue pie and praise Jesus Mind your careless moans and groans Reconcile with the Holy Ghost Give your guardian angel a nod And don't throw stones at God
The journey is definitely more important than the destination...

Elvis! I admire your work here in scribing the commercial God song. Consulting with the knowledgeable Tony is commendable and wise. I like the direction of Tony's replacement chorus. Don't throw stones at secular gods either(Lennon)?
Finally, the bridge is humorous and cool...but might not be how God would work it...it might be more like: you pray, he answers....you throw stones, dead silence. Bill

The meringue pie is a laugh line. Okay, if that's what you want in the song. In a way, I like it, because it softens the preachiness.

(V;) The Devil is the Dean of Life College But the All Saints school of hard knocks Teaches a man that sleight of hand Is a skill better than knowledge
(V;) Lawman wearing his down town frown Not enough equity to go around Assumed entitlement, everybody's doin'it Grinning thieves lost in the crowd
(P-CH;) Heaven ain't on the map And angels have a thankless job You can't bribe the Devil And throw rocks at God (CH) If life gives you lemons 'stead of peaches Make lemon meringue pie and praise Jesus Mind your careless moans and groans Reconcile with the Holy Ghost Give your guardian angel a nod And don't throw stones at God
(V;) Politicians shatter the ceiling For WOKE disciples with hurt feelings The system is wrecked, cause and effect The precedence for stealing
(V;) Minority millionaires take a knee I'm laughing tears but it ain't funny Rock-n-Roll has lost its soul And the Pope just wants more money
(CH)
(BR) Tossing pearls at swine Drunk on wicked wine Armageddon in the garden of Eden It's judgment time
(P-CH;) I may seem off kilter But my Spirit has no filter No matter what you call it God won't fit in my wallet (CH)
(TAG...) My guardian angel walked off the job I'm dodging the lightning Throwing rocks at God... "Oh, Lord won't you buy me a Mercedes Benz..."
