God wasn't in the crusades He isn't in the killing of weapons men made He didn't solicit the death of millions He doesn't reside in the tyranny of man He doesn't just steal loved ones away He isn't in the evil committed in his name We have twisted his message of love to fit our needs For control and bringing others to their knees His message wasn't meant to enslave but to free To serve and bring revival to the powers that be So before we preach of Gods indecency We have to look within God didn't fail mankind We failed him
