The Gospel of Nothing (Hallelujah to the Void) [Nordic Discord Challenge]

Brothers and sisters, We gather today not to find meaning, But to celebrate the glorious absence of it! Lift your voices high — even if no one’s listening! Can I get an existential Amen? Amen! I woke up this morning, with the sun in my eye, Asked the good Lord a question, but He passed me by. So I poured out some absinthe, and I started to sing, If life has no meaning, I can still let the church bells ring! Ring them bells, ring them bells, Let the void hear our sound! Ring them bells, ring them bells, ‘Cause meaning can’t be found! Oh, hallelujah to the void! Hallelujah to the void! Praise be to the nothing! Yes, Lord — or whoever’s listening! Freedom’s a heavy cross we bear, But we bear it with flair! We got soul in our sorrow, It’s the Gospel of the Void! I met Sister Simone on the left bank shore, She said, “We’re condemned to be free forevermore.” So I preached my sermon to a crowd half-drunk, Said, “There’s no salvation, but there’s funk!” Preach it, brother! If there’s no truth, we’ll make some noise! Preach it, sister! Let despair be our choice! Oh, hallelujah to the void! Hallelujah! Praise be to the nothing! Yes, Lord — or whoever’s listening! Freedom’s a burden, But joy’s a rebellion! Let’s shout our confusion, In divine disunion! We got soul in our sorrow, It’s the Gospel of the Void! Now every saint and sinner, every thinker and fool, We’ve all enrolled in that meaningless school. But if the universe is silent, Then we’ll make it sing — With the choir of the absurd, Let the holy dissonance ring! Let it ring! Let it ring! Make the void our everything! Let it ring! Let it ring! Find your freedom in nothing! Hallelujah to the void! Hallelujah to the void! Lift up your sorrow and joy! Lift it up, lift it up! No heaven, no hell, no divine reward, We dance ‘cause we’re free — not because we’re assured! We’re saints of the meaningless, Singing praise to the void! Brothers and sisters, There may be no grand design, But there’s rhythm in your heartbeat, And harmony in your confusion. Go forth and live — absurdly, honestly, freely. This is your gospel, The Gospel of Nothing. Hallelujah... to the void... Hallelujah... to the void...
