Children Of Abraham

lyrics

CHILDREN OF ABRAHAM

For so long we had been
imprisoned by you lies
you flattered us with your tongues
beguiling us with your eyes
you picked our pockets
just to build your little paper towers
mesmerized us with your
technological voodoo power.

But we are the children of Abraham
headed for the promised land
we are a remnant escaped out of Babylon
washed in the blood of the Lamb.

Some trust in the speed of their chariots
some in the power of the horse
some trust in their riches of gold an silver
but we will trust in the Lord.
