Headbangers For Heaven
(lyrics Karl Allison/music Alvin Allison)
This group’s not for old folk - the music is too loud !
Headbangers and hippies are our ideal crowd.
We’ll reach them with our message and make them feel the beat,
We want the ones who bang their heads and stamp their feet.
Headbangers for Heaven
That must be our aim
We will get them moving
And shouting Jesus’ name.
Standing by the speaker playing mock guitar
Motor bikes and dirty words that is how they are.
All they dig is music - it can get them high
But not as high as Heaven way up in the sky.
Headbangers for Heaven
That must be our aim
We will get them moving
And shouting Jesus’ name
But these boys need loving and these boys need care
And if they turn to Jesus I know that He’ll be there.
Only He can save them - He’ll show them the way.
He’ll speak through the music and that is why we play.
Headbangers for Heaven
That must be our aim
We will get them moving
And shouting Jesus’ name
So get you heads a-banging, we don’t mind at all.
Do it when and where you like - even in an Army hall !
Denim jackets, badges, jeans shows you like rock and roll -
By saying "Jesus loves me" - shows He’s saved your soul.
Headbangers for Heaven
That must be our aim
We will get them moving
And shouting Jesus’ name
And shouting Jesus’ name
And shouting Jesus’ name.
Headbangers for Heaven !
