Our world about is full of sin

What kind of mess are we all in

I’d like to know how we got here

Too many people live in fear

This is not by the Lord’s design

When He’s in charge all will be fine.

Recall the walls of Jericho

Or Sodom and Gomorra’s woe,

The lions will lie down with lamb

Do you remember Isaac’s ram ?

It’s time to get right on the track

We need to take our futures back

We’ll say our prayers and sip the cup

Oh please, dear God, let’s hurry up !

The mornings come, the mornings go

From dawn through dusk and starlight show

The world we know is dying fast

This future now may be our last

For who can say what will come next

A ferv’rent prayer or holy text ?

The seeing eyes of God above

And unrelenting force of love,

I beg Him here on bended knees

Repair the hole in my heart, please !
