Does the world ever seem like a nightmare |
|
Some suffer but the other ones don't care |
|
It doesn't matter if it's going on elsewhere |
|
Like it doesn't happen if it's not happening here |
|
There's a girl with only a mother |
|
And a dad who won't seem to bother |
|
No love, so she finds a lover |
|
Now she has a child who doesn't have a father |
|
I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
Yeah, I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
We'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun |
|
'Cause we won't need them when the kingdom comes. |
|
When the Communists turn into the Terrorists |
|
But the Axis came before the Soviets |
|
And before that came the Confederates |
|
We'll always have a war to fight, you can count on this. |
|
With every cure there comes another sickness |
|
The earth dies with every bit of progress |
|
We've gone deaf to the cries of the oppressed |
|
What we need is Jesus to redeem us |
|
I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
Yeah, I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
We'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun |
|
'Cause we won't need them when the kingdom comes. |
|
Now the world doesn't work 'cause we've broken it |
|
And we need dope and Prozac just to cope with it |
|
Now the Beast speaks his peace to the Congress, |
|
Plans to propagate Proposition 666 |
|
Hitler's still alive in the knives of abortionists |
|
And the news twists the truth like contortionists |
|
And I wonder what happened to humanity |
|
We say peace but we're heading for calamity |
|
I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
Yeah, I hope the Prince of peace is coming soon. |
|
We'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun |
|
'Cause we won't need them when the kingdom comes. |
|
We long for the day when we shall see the heavens and the earth as they should be. |
