I actually do think that it IS "why would you let us use your name." His name IS holy and the Jews even feared writing his name down in it's intirety. They would abbreviate his name and leave out certain letters, which, translated into English, would be YHWH. And, I'm also in agreement with ginnyboy about challenging God. It's a scary concept considering that Jesus himself quoted scripture, "Thou shalt not tempt the Lord your God." to Satan when he was being tempted on the mountain. So, I will probably stop singing this song and only listen haha
I couldn't remember if I had commented on this one or not, and upon rereading it, I would like to take back the part about loving when Tyler tests God. Their should be no joy in listening to someone do something so foolish. I do enjoy listening to his music and how he seems to speak about God from his heart with sincerity, but sometimes I wish I could just sit with him and share some things. I want to share the truth, and I know that we are all at different points on our journey with God, but...

@NoahBeardless I think it is "why won't you let us use your name" as if he is questioning why people can't use His name.
