Good Friday.

the people of the earth, gather with one voice
the sound of the young, screams hear me from the noise
Lost, Confused; Distressed, Abused
my people are lost, they know not what to do

THE STARS IN THE NIGHT SHINE BRIGHT
FOR OUT OF BETHLEHEM COMES LIGHT
AND TO US, A CHILD IS BORN
TO SAVE US ALL FROM SCORN

they blog, they party, they drink it all away
anything and everything, that gives em identity
come and party, have sex and be merry
keep quiet I can't, cos they're drifting away surely

A LIL BOY WAVES HIS BRANCH OF PALM, HE KNOWS HE'S WORTHY
SHOUTS OF 'HOSANNA', HERE COMES THE DONKEY
HIS MOTHER HAD SAID, THE MESSIAH'S COMING
SEE HIM HE MUST; PRAISE THE ONE WHO'S HOLY

suddenly the world's gone insane
suicidal youths; drugs and shame
divorce, abortions, forni-cation
new age movements, hopes for a change

HE TOOK THE BREAD, BROKE IT TO TWO
SAID THIS IS MY BODY, BROKEN FOR YOU
'I HAVE TO GO, MY PEOPLE ARE DYING'
TO BREAK THE CURSE OF SIN, TO STOP THE CRYING

we put our trust in the material to begin
wealth and status, it's the name of the game
but when markets crash, and beauty fades
the house of sand, never seems to stand

THEY DROVE THE NAIL, RIGHT INTO HIS HANDS
THE KING OF JEWS, A FRAIL LITTLE LAMB
THE DROP OF BLOOD, THAT FELL FROM THE WOOD
NOW THE BLIND COULD SEE, THE LAME HAD STOOD

I cried, I asked, I couldn't understand
now He's blood, it's on my hands
to tell a generation there's hope from within
go live your life now; soley for him
