It was “Some folks believe in nothing / But if you believe in nothing /Then what’s to keep the nothing from coming for you”, which seems pretty obviously sarcastic to me.
I think there was something more on the version I saw after that segment. I no longer have access to it, and I’m not willing to expend more effort to prove a point I don’t consider particularly interesting.
Suffice to say that Colbert is a strong theist; I don’t think that’s controversial.

His character is a strong theist. It is less clear what his real views are. I believe he is a practicing Catholic but I get the impression his actual views on religion are rather more nuanced than those his character presents.
No, he is a strong theist. I like him a lot (although I’m not a liberal, like his fans usually are) but he is a very religious man, even in his out of character interviews. He also seemed to be trying to sincerely argue against Dawkins during part of his second interview with him.
