This is the only place in outer space

Where you can find the human race.

Have you ever asked yourself, "Why am I here?"

The Bible tells one story, but scientists say it's because we have an atmosphere.

As a religious man, I know I am not going to be here on this Earth that long.

So I will stand by the Bible and hope the scientists are wrong.

They say it took billions and billions of years to get this shape and form ...

Now isn't that unique?

You see, the way I was brought up, I was told it only took a week.

So let's all of us just be happy we are still here,

And maybe when we pass there is a place up there.
