Hard Rock song about a priest who delivers last rites and then tells a family that their dying loved one is going to hell because she did not go to church.

My mother was dying and my father asked the local priest to come in and pray for her and give last rites. The priest did so and on his way out the door asked what church my parents attended. My father told the priest that they did not have a church or attend. The priest then told my father that all this was a waste of time, that his wife was going to hell and that he would too if he did not attend church. So much for comforting the sick and dying.

Going To Hell

Dear Father what's your name
You came to say a prayer
And offer comfort to a family breaking
Instead you played a game
Like you know who goes where
And left her husband with his soul so shaken
Now the Word is
Being tested
How could you be so wrong?
"Fear not for, I am with you"
Said the Lord your God
So who, who are you
To decide
Who's going to Hell (2x)
Who's going to Hell
Say all your Glory Be(s) and
Holy Mother please
Well you forgot what's truly divine
No comfort empathy
Your judgment false to me
Your words will ripple until your end time
And now the Word is
Being tested
How could you be so wrong?
Peace I leave you, my peace I give you
Said the Lord your God
So who, who are you
To decide
Who's going to Hell (2x)
Who's going to Hell (4x)
SPOKEN WORD BREAK
So who, who are you
To decide
Who's going to Hell (2x)
Who's going to Hell (4x)
