The song "Blasphemy" by Steel Pulse is a powerful statement against those who deny and betray the religious faith. The lyrics suggest that when facts are mixed with fiction, it can create friction in the minds of non-believers. Thomas, the name, is the one that the people answer when they are called, and the descendants of Judas prefer Barabas. However, the song provides hope by saying that even though they must die, all is not lost, and he lives forever. The chorus suggests that singing a joyful song can help people overcome the negative feelings associated with blasphemy.
The verses emphasize that the singer is a believer, and he is not in danger of losing his faith. The power of the song lies in its message that those who betrayed Jesus did so out of ignorance, and they were not his true followers. The second verse talks about the humiliation that Jesus suffered at the hands of those who rejected him. However, he was not a blasphemer, and he lives forever. The third verse suggests that the blind, deaf, lame, dumb, and diseased can be healed through faith. The song ends with a call to not betray or deny Jesus.
