Father

Reptile around me,
like a stick of dynamite,
Your worldly desire can't take you higher,
you're burning alive, yeah.

Once saved, always saved
- do you find that hard to be true?
If Jesus Christ came down off the cross,
would you deny three times before midnight?

Ooh, Father, forgive them,
Ooh, Father, forgive them.

Children are dying,
Children are crying.

Seems like the blind lead the blind to the slaughter
it seems so black,
Does faith of a man reflect the action of a soul,
or does a brother's eye reflect his own?

Ooh, Father, I've been there,
Ooh, Father, I've been there.

Children are dying,
Children are crying.

Ooh, Father, forgive them,
Ooh, Father, I've been there.

Children are dying,
Children are crying.
