lyrics

There are politicians saying this is a Christian land
And there are certain newspapers like to wave this around
But if they had any idea what the Bible says
They’d be the first to convert to about anything else

It says to welcome the stranger into your home
And care for the foreigner as one of your own
And Jesus stands before you in this suffering
If you turn away from these, then you turn away from Him

Well of course, we’re being hopeful in believing the best
That our leaders are just ignorant of what the Bible says
But its also possible they know very well
Still they invoke the name of Jesus as they build the gates of hell
