does the world ever seem like a nightmare?
some suffer and the other ones don't care.
what does it matter if it's going on elsewhere?--like it doesn't happen if it's not happening here...
there's a girl with only a mother
and her dad just won't seem to bother
no love so she finds a lover
now she has a child who doesn't have a father...

i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon

yeah i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon

we'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun

'cause we won't need them when the Kingdom comes

when the communists turn into the terrorists...
but the axis came before the soviets
and before that came the confederates--
we'll always have a war to fight, you can count on this.

with every cure there comes another sickness.
the earth dies with every bit of progress.
we've gone deaf to the cries of the oppressed.
what we need is Jesus to redeem us.

i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon.

yeah, i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon.

we'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun

'cause we won't need them when the Kingdom comes.

now the world doesn't work cause we've broken it
and we need dope & prozac just to cope with it
now the beast speaks his piece to the congress--
plans to propagate proposition 666...
hitler's still alive in the knives of abortionists
and the news twists the truth like contortionists
and they wonder what happened to humanity--
we say peace but we're headed for calamity.

i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon.

yeah, i hope the Prince of peace is coming soon.

we'll learn to make a plowshare from a gun

'cause we won't need them when the Kingdom comes.

we long for the day when we will see the heavens and the earth as they should be.
