The song All Good Books is performed by Paul Weller in the album named Illumination [Limited Edition w/ Bonus DVD] in the year 2003 .
Jesus could hear us now
Bending all His words of which He's proud
But the carpenter was only making invitations
Voicing the opinions of others
Sending down a word that travels well
Only as a vessel, as a bell
And the violence you've mistaken
In the words you took to be taken
And the images of hatred
Against all that we're worth
All that we love
All that is true
All we hold dear
Mohammed could see us now
Shaking down the walls but not as prayer
And the power games that play out
And the lies that come within out
And the sacrifice should make out
Against all that we are worth
All that we love
All that is true
All we dream of
All that you give
All for we live
All that we love
