Deliver Us

Good Lord deliver us from ourselves
Pick us up from this self made hell
Help us to end our charade of self
Deliver us from ourselves

Good Lord help us to do your will
We'll twist your words to be king of the hill
We'll teach to hate, we'll even teach to kill
Lord help us do your will

Chorus:

Tell me why does it seem
so dangerous to dream
of a time when things could be better?

Or will we have to dissipate
'til all our love turns into hate
'fore we finally see love as better?

Or is it simply just our fate
to burn to pillage and to rape
all the beauty we've been given?

Good Lord help us to love each other
Help me to do right by myself and another
I'm not my brother's keeper, I am my brother
Lord help us love each other

(Chorus)

Good Lord free us from these age old chains
Made out of fear, made out of hate and pain
The way we treat each other is just insane
Lord free us from these chains

(Chorus)
