Does any nation represent Christ today? |
The “Land of the free, and home of the brave” Is changing the world in front of our eyes While nations await with bated breath To see what effect it will have on their lives Mr President, America, your land of dreams Today you stand with flags unfurled Seeking to impose your will On a fragile and divided world Are other nations any less Than the America you have made And are all others by implication All cowardly and enslaved? But, Presidents come and Generals go And seek their own place in history To ever be honoured, and never forgotten Grasping at immortality Just as my forefathers carved the world And stole whole nations for their own use Poor India, Palestine, and others Enslaved under the British noose So your forefathers then behaved In stealing lands from native souls California, Colorado, Texas, and others That once belonged to Mexico While Hamas and Isis murder and rape Demanding in God's name, occupation cease Though God and His son denounce such acts And Jesus himself urged forgiveness and peace And Israel – once blessed by God himself To teach all the nations God's mercy true Has forgotten God's holy commandments And adopted terrorism too While your friends in Israel seek With fire, all Palestine to burn And you sir, enable and support this On the off-chance that the Messiah returns And the Russian machine is ever moving Destroying trust and liberty In paranoid isolation While crushing true Christianity Yes, mankind's political games abound And all nations take their turn in war None can claim to be so righteous And countries always have their poor But, in our world where glory seekers Strive to leave a legend behind They often claim divine backing That God and Jesus are on their side. So, Mr President, take your spoils From nations poorer than your United States It's just the latest in history's injustice And the raising of the global stakes And, though British cowards ignore your crimes And turn a blind eye to US heists Stop your administration from claiming That you are acting on behalf of Christ For if you were truly Christian And Jesus was your King and Lord You would beat your guns into plows And you would want to learn war no more No, Mr President, Jesus is not with you Because you rule with violent threat While seizing wealth and people's freedoms And using power as a savage pet For Christ identified his people As lovers of peace and God's kingdom pearl Jesus said that his true disciples Would be no part of man's broken world Yet, your people deny earths demise Of climate's increase by human design But, Jesus warns us – in the Bible That such an event would be a sign That we would one day poison this planet And yet, refuse to see the curse That God will act, and bring to ruin Those who ruin God's sweet earth For, whether your America Or Britain, Russia or Israel Jesus has sworn to hold all nations Responsible for this man-made Hell For Christ does not stand for any nation As the prophets swore with God-breathed pen That God rejects man's wars and divisions And to all man's governments will put an end And so, dear America – our brethren Observe Christ's sign and understand That mankind cannot bring salvation Only God's heavenly kingdom can “My kingdom is no part of this world” “Love your enemy, and forgive those who persecute you” “Whoever takes up the sword shall perish by the sword” “God will bring to ruin those ruining the earth” - Jesus Christ |
