Nothing new
Under the sun
Stressed out
Under the gun.
Liars lie
Deceivers deceive
Holding hostage
With no reprieve.
The delusion continues
Reprobate to the bone
More worldly evil
Your people condone.
The devil grins
In your face everyday
Mocking your frustration
And every word you say.
Struggling within
Striving without
Souls up for auction
Sanity in doubt.
Raise Your Sword high
With Holy precision
Multitudes in the valley
Have made their decision.
Please make Your Judgment
Swift and complete
Let them beg for mercy
And bow at Your feet.
Penetrate this darkness.....
Split the eastern sky
One ray of Your Holy Light
To blind the evil All-Seeing Eye!
Speak forth Your Word
With great peals of thunder!
Let them make their final stand
As You break THEIR bands asunder!
Bring forth Your Righteous Rod of Iron!
Speak unto them in sore displeasure!
They've reveled in Your blessings too long.....
And trampled everything You treasure.
Our hearts cry out for justice!
And a place where Truth will stand.....
Let the devil and his minions
Be snared by the works of their hands.
Cast them into outer darkness!
Let them weep and gnash their teeth.....
Let them know the bitter heartache ---
Let THEM hang a mourning wreath.
Let the kings of the earth be astonished
And with perfect clarity see
All the riches they have plundered
LOST FOREVER IN ETERNITY!
Send no more the strong delusion
No sorceries or magic wands.....
Let the swaggering pomp of a once proud people
Become a lamentation of swans.
