LET GO AND LET GOD

The world is in turmoil - maybe it's time to turn to God!

LET GO AND LET GOD

The world is in turmoil
With destruction and war;
The hatred and killing
Go on, more and more.

We send our young men
And women off to battle;
We pick up the sword
Like a mean bunch of cattle.

Where does it get us?
Where will it all end?
We bury our dead
And start over again?

History repeats itself
Time after time;
We just go along,
Memories in ryhme.

The tears that we shed
Are all lost in vain;
Have we lost all faith?
Should we fight again?

I honor the flag,
The red, white and blue;
Yet when the wars start
What do we do?

It may be time to
Let go and let God
Sort it all out on
This blood-soaked sod.

Let God sort it out
And fall to our knees;
Let destruction and death
End for us, please -

He created the earth
With love and devotion;
We messed it up,
And I have a notion

That He wouldn't be happy
To see what we've done;
With all the hurting,
Who has really won?
