These beats are [[samples|sampled]] from ''Atom Heart's Rather Interesting World Of Digital Drums'' sample library by Atomizer™. ===God Given (Instrumental)==='''''Running Time: 3:56''''' This unmastered vocal-less mix was released by [[Trent Reznor]] through his remix.nin.com account. ===God Given: Stephen Morris & Gillian Gilbert==='''''Running Time: 4:27''''' This remix appears on ''Y34RZ3R0R3M1X3D.''

==Lyrics==
Hey man, please Please don't make a sound
Take a look around
Can't you see what's right in front of you? Aah
Have a little taste
No more time to waste
You don't wanna get left behind cause , because it's all coming down right now Now—how How hard Hard is it to see?
Put your faith in me
I sure wouldn't want to be chained To Praying to the wrong piece of wood You should get Get where you belong
Everything you know is wrong
Come on, sing along, everybody now God given
(God Given)
And He gives us sight
And you'll we see the light
And it burns so bright
Now you we know we're right It is When His kingdom come And thy Thy will be done
We have just begun
We're the chosen ones
I would never tell you anything that wasn't absolutely true that hadn't come right from His mouth and He wants me to tell you Wait, step Step into the light How can this be right? I'm afraid we're gonna going to ask you to leave Guess you cannot can not win
With the color of your skin
You won't be getting into in to the Promised Land Besides
This is just another case
You people still don't know your place
Step aside, out the way, wipe that look off your face
'Cause we We are the divine
Separated from the swine
Come on, sing along, everybody now God given
(God Given)
And He gives us sight
And you'll we see the light
And it burns so bright
Now you we know we're right It is When His kingdom come (and the Father and the Holy Ghost) And thy Thy will be done
We have just begun
We're the chosen ones
And He gives us sight
And we see the light
And it burns so bright
Now we know we're right
When His kingdom come
And Thy will be done
And the Father and the Holy Son
We're the chosen ones
I would never tell you anything that wasn't absolutely true that hadn't come right from
His mouth and He wants me to tell you
