You can take God out of my school
You can make me listen to you
You can take God out of the pledge
But you can't take God out of my head

Listen to me closely, lend me your ear
The substance of my statemnet lets you know I'm sincere
Government officials, shapers of the land
I've to to tell you something you need to understand

Chorus
You can't take God away from me
You can take my life, my land, my liberty
Lock me up, I'll still be free
'cause you can't take God from me

You can take God out of the law
You can make me listen to ya'll
You can take God out of the start
But you can't take God out of my heart

Listen to me closely, lend me your ear
The substance of my statemnet lets you know I'm sincere
Government officials, shapers of the land
I've to to tell you something you need to understand

Repeat chorus

Bridge
You can't take god, you can't take God away
You can't take god, you can't take God away
You can't take god, you can't take God away
You can't take god, you can't take God away

Repeat chorus
