I've watched you take what's mine and claim it as your own You've poisoned my people and desolated my home You're a disillusioned blind leading a flock of blind sheep You've turned your back on me, you say you're your own king You've forgotten that I've given you this land long ago, To look after my people and harvest what I've sowed You've grown into weeds, casted in the net You'll be gathered into bundles and burned in the furnace
I, your father, who made you My blood I share is yours I sent my brothers to save you But you ****** them in the courts Their righteous blood is now upon you You killed them with yours swords What now am I to say to you In this never-ending war
You are my children My own flesh and bone Oh how I've longed for you To return your home While you killed those I've sent To help you from your suffering My heart was to gather you Like birds under my wing No matter how my heart has yearned You remained unwilling Look, your house is desolate Your time here is withering
One day again, you'll see me The day I hear you say "Blessed are those who come in your name"
