The Beast & the Harlot by Avenged Sevenfold. The real purpose of the bible is to supply awesome lyrics for metal songs...
The funny thing is that this song would freak the hell out of most JWs even though the lyrics sound just like the Rev Climax book. It should be a kingdom melody...
AVENGED SEVENFOLD
"Beast And The Harlot"
This shining city built of gold, a far cry from innocence,
There's more than meets the eye round here, look to the waters of the deep.
A city of evil.
There sat a seven-headed beast, ten horns raised from his head.
Symbolic woman sits on his throne, but hatred strips her and leaves her naked.
The Beast and the Harlot.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The city dressed in jewels and gold, fine linen, myrrh and pearls.
Her plagues will come all at once as her mourners watch her burn.
Destroyed in an hour.
Merchants and captains of the world, sailors, navigators too.
Will weep and morn this loss with her sins piled to the sky,
The Beast and the Harlot.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
The day has come for all us sinners.
If you're not a servant, you'll be struck to the ground.
Flee the burning, greedy city.
Lookin' back on her to see there's nothing around.
I don't believe in fairytales and no one wants to go to hell.
We've made the wrong decision and it's easy to see.
Now if you wanna serve above or be a king below with us,
You're welcome to the city where your future is set forever.
She's a dwelling place for demons.
She's a cage for every unclean spirit,
every filthy bird and makes us drink the poisoned wine to fornicating with our kings.
Fallen now is Babylon the Great.
What song would you like to hear entering the Kingdom Hall?

Yakity Yak,
Take out those papers and the trash
Or you don't get no spending cash
If you don't sweep that bathroom floor
You ain't gonna comment any no more
Yakity yak
Don't talk back
Just finish cleaning up that room
Let's see that dust fly with that broom
Get all that garbage out of sight
Or you don't speak on Thursday night
Yakity Yak
Don't talk back
You just put on your coat and hat
And walk yourself to the laundromat
And when you finish doing that
Then go to Winchell's and put on the fat
Yakity yak
Don't talk back
Don't you give me no dirty looks
Your father's hip he knows what cooks
Just tell your hoodlum friends outside
You ain't got time to take a ride
Yakity yak
Don't talk back
Yakity yak, Yakity yakGumby

Tainted Love by Soft Cell (or Marilyn Manson)
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night
(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love
Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you'LL think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way
(chorus...)
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
Tainted love (x3) -

Johnnie Cash did a version of Personal Jesus? I will have to look that up as all I've heard is his version of NIN's "Hurt". ... ... ... *looking* ... ... ...
Oh hell ya!! - http://www.last.fm/music/Johnny+Cash/_/Personal+Jesus (just a preview)
Great selections guys and gals!
The first song that comes to mind is "The Immigrant Song" by Led Zeppelin... don't know why.
Circle Jerk's "Killing for Jesus" comes to mind.

My choice would be a good ol' war song...
Sink The Bismark - Johnny Horton
I like the idea of Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden, but I'd probably choose Screaming For Vengeance by Judas Priest as my second. I could picture the dubs with their hands over their ears for that one!

Ooohh... Johnny Cash says "God's Gonna Cut You Down"...

God's Gonna Cut You Down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Well my goodness gracious let me tell you the news
My head's been wet with the midnight dew
I've been down on bended knee talkin' to the man from Galilee
He spoke to me in the voice so sweet
I thought I heard the shuffle of the angel's feet
He called my name and my heart stood still
When he said, "John go do My will!"
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut 'em down
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Well you may throw your rock and hide your hand
Workin' in the dark against your fellow man
But as sure as God made black and white
What's done in the dark will be brought to the light
You can run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Run on for a long time
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Sooner or later God'll cut you down
Go tell that long tongue liar
Go and tell that midnight rider
Tell the rambler,
The gambler,
The back biter
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down
Tell 'em that God's gonna cut you down -
