One Nation Under

This is the world
and this is the steeple
and these plans were made
without asking the people

And now from our pews
seems something has died
or maybe ignited
I don’t know, you decide.

Our Freedoms were challanged
the fire grew hotter
A peace loving nation
come hell or high water

Pride, it is written
comes before a great fall
so keep your hearts humble
and make peace with all.

But evil was present since before there was light
to kill and destroy is it's only delight
the heart is rebellious
and easily sways
drawn from the path
and corrupt in it's ways.

So whatever the forefathers
meant for this nation
whatever intentions or vain affirmation
without a strong faith and fear of the Lord
we'll bind up our wounds but fall on the Sword.

A paranoid nation
with anger and fear
not knowing our enemy
was lurking so near.

With 9/11 burned in our souls
we will forever be shocky
and our leader like most has his personal goals
his game plan was really quite cocky.

History will tell you
The world is full of fools
and who ever has the biggest bombs
are the ones who make the rules.

And what then of our leadership
who's called our men to fight
who prays to Jesus, God above
the Way, the Truth, the Light?

Does the God we claim we're under
the Holy One who I adore
Did He support this from the start
or does he HATE all war?

The word says to pray for our leaders
‘cause who really knows the plan
but God who gives the wisdom
to fix the messes made by man.

Pride, like a river
before a great fall
flows with it's thunder
to crash down the wall

A paranoid nation

With nine one one burned in our souls
we were shocky
Our leader like most
at his game was quite cocky

History will tell you
The world's full of fools
and those with the A-bombs
don't keep their own rules

Does the God that we're claiming
to trust on our money
have a plan for the end
can it ever be funny?

The word says to pray
that God's got a plan
will He fix all the messes
or mess up the man?
