Soldiers In The War For Peace

If you take a look around you

You can see the world like I do

Do you remember world wars one and two

The persecution of the Jews

The genocide in Vietnam

In Bosnia and Pakistan

In Sarajevo and Zaire

Rwanda and Afghanistan

The occupation of Kuwait

Israel, and Palestine

The broken hearts in Ireland

In Iraq and in Iran

The terror from the USA

How much blood was shed today

By orders from the Pentagon

The list of names goes on and on and on

Man's inhumanity

Is there for those with eyes to see

War, greed and hate abound

Just take a look around

You'll see Godless men in Godless times

Godless sin and Godless crimes

Godless fear controls our minds

Keeping us enslaved

As prisoners of darkness

We must break the chains that bind us

Only through the blood of Jesus

Can this world be saved

If you take a look around you

You can see the world like I do

Do you see the countless refugees

The homeless and abandoned

Driven from their nation's door

Cut down by war and famine

Do you see the brutal war machines

Crushing all before them

Their bodies broken and diseased

How can we ignore them

Man's inhumanity

Is there for those with eyes to see

War, greed and hate abound

Just take a look around

You'll see Godless men in Godless times

Godless sin and Godless crimes

Godless fear controls our minds

Keeping us enslaved

As prisoners of darkness

We must break the chains that bind us

Only through the blood of Jesus

Can this world be saved

If you take a look around you
You can see the world like I do

We must be soldiers in the war for peace

Like Matthew, Mark and Luke and John

Soldiers in the war for peace

Like Andrew and Bartholomew

Soldiers in the war for peace

Like Thomas, James and Timothy

Soldiers in the war for peace

Like Philip, Peter, Simon, Paul

Soldiers in the war for peace

Like Desmond Doss and Robert Moss

Soldiers in the war for peace

Like Jesus Christ the Son of God

LORD of lords and King of kings

Man's inhumanity

Is there for those with eyes to see

War, greed and hate abound

Just take a look around

You'll see Godless men in Godless times

Godless sin and Godless crimes

Godless fear controls our minds

Keeping us enslaved

As prisoners of darkness

We must break the chains that bind us

Only through the blood of Jesus

Can this world be saved

If you take a look around you
You can see the world like I do
