You prepared the killing grounds At the first creation You put the hate and greed In hearts that rot our nation You made us love to quarrel And that has dammed our souls And it denies our peace It costs us heavy tolls
You could have built the peace Far far beyond the garden But You let evil reign And allowed men's hearts to harden They say you saw the future Where Abel died in vain You could have took the knife But left it up to Cain
You allowed the seeds of darkness And let it bloom inside him Man never had a prayer You made and sacrificed him! Why did You build such chaos Allow the senseless sinning A wiser God would change the course Go back to the beginning
