lyrics

A young man was preaching on a warm summer day, up on a hill by a tree
He paused for a moment, looked up in the sky and he knew what his future would be
He smiled at his people, they smiled back at him and he almost felt the heat
Of the sun on his back and the weight of the cross that he’d carry up on Calvary

Seth and his wife lived a hard life, five children and nothing to eat
Prayed to God for help from above in a hut at the side of the street
They used words like “mercy” and “love” till one day they were sent
They woke up to find in absolute fright that three of their young ones were dead

An old man whose name I cannot recall was begging down in a square
He cried out for money cursing the world, said it’s all so unfair
Till a security van full of dollars and dimes lost control and crashed on a wall
Right in the spot where he stood all day long and covered his corpse with gold


Please leave me alone
Just let me be
Free
I wanna live

You, you only deceit the weak and the meek
To play a game you only win
Oh, please mercy me and just crawl away back in the holy hole you’ve built
I can’t believe this the way you show your love,
Love!

Your fingers cold and firm
Like nails on my flesh
These are the ways of your love
Of your love
Of your love…
