Here's another compelling reason for a god: Ef ye want to see Jesus

From the Digitrad:

"Note by Fenner: "My father sang this hymn* and said he knew a time when a great many slaves were allowed to have a revival for two days, while their masters and their families had one; and a great many professed religion. And one poor, ignorant man, professed religion, and praised God, and sang this hymn."

Ef ye want to see Jesus,
Go in de wilderness,
Go in de wilderness,
Go in de wilderness,
Ef ye want to see Jesus,
Go in de wilderness,
Leanin' on de Lord.

Oh, brother, how d'ye feel,
when ye come out de wilderness,
come out de wilderness,
come out de wilderness
Oh, brudder how d'ye feel,
when ye come out de wilderness,
Leanin' on de Lord.

I felt so happy when I come out de wilderness,
come out de wilderness,
come out de wilderness.
I feel so happy when I come out de wilderness,
Leanin' on de Lord....

Anything that lifts the heart, brightens the spirits and gives hope to the desperate and downtrodden has more than enough "reason" for existence, in my book.
