I think he's praying for salvation from anyone who will give it to him.

On my death bed I will pray To the gods and the angels Like a pagan To anyone who will take me to heaven

I don't think he's accepting God, just hoping that there is one and he is forgiving.

Damn it, I have to agree with the prick lol.

You my friend have hit the nail square on the head. The book he is reading is the Bible! Although the bible is a book of praise and uplift it is also a book filled with much death. There is much pain and sadness and regret from whomever wrote this song and searches to lay down their weight.
