The lies of our leaders are many;
they condemn with heartless words.
In their cavernous souls
they plan the demise of others.

From the moment they reign
their minds turn inward.
All they say destroys,
and like the poisonous viper
they cannot respond to reason,
their deaf ears cannot hear.

Knock them down, O Lord,
wash their deceit away;
dispel their myths
before their ignorance spreads;
keep them from eyes
that cannot see.

I trust the time is now
for Your way to return to men.
We will rejoice when Love takes hold;
we will celebrate the end of hate;
we will lift up our arms to the sky;
we will receive Your Grace and know
Your hand has healed the earth.
