Bring Them Home

Songs Lyrics
They see the rod but do they know the smiter
They see the uprising but do they know the inciter
Ah is there ayone among the Nation
Who could lead this generation
And bring the children home - once again
They curse their burden
But do they see the taskmaster
They curse their problems
But do they seek the answer
(chorus)
They feel the heat but do they see the sunshine
They drive so fast but can they read the road signs
(chorus)
They witness crimes but do they understand them
The dogs run free but is there anyone to command them
(chorus)

Age of Cancer

Songs Lyrics
This is the age of cancer - creeping through the borders
Breaking down defenses from within
This is the age of cancer - occupying the body
Confusing all the issues of the soul
Oh and they say they'll pay us for digging our own graves
So they all come running saying look at the fortunes we've made
Then their told to dig faster - cause it's the age of cancer
And the band plays on
This is the age of cancer giving birth to more decay
Giving license for the victims to be slayed
This is the age of cancer whose cure cannot be found
For it feeds on indifference and delay
Oh and the doctors say its under control
As they look from their window and it eats away at their soul
And they starve as they grow fatter for its the age of cancer
And the band plays on
Oh and my sister shes sitting over there
And she sings and she plays and she lights her little candles everywhere
But it don't really matter - cause its the age of cancer
And the band plays on

By His Command

She lies in a heap on her bed Where she used to lie with her lover They dragged him away in the night And they forced him to watch as they Had their way with her Untouchable places torn with rough hands And her children cried as they tried to reach her And the bones were disturbed As they rolled from the graves Even heaven cried from underneath her
And everyone said well how can this be Isnt her Father the King of the Land And everyone said no this couldnt be Unles it was - By His command By His command - By his command But where is He now Returned to His garden That's returned to the sand
Was there anyone more loyal more faithful than her Could any heroine stand beside her And they came on that day to darken the sun With their dirty hands to defile her
Oh the torch that burned like a beacon of light How can it lie now in ruin and rubble What angel in Heaven can look in her eye When they abandoned her In her moment of struggle
And everyone says well how can this be Isnt her Father the King of the Land And everyone says no this cannot be Unless it was - By His command By His command - By his command But where is He now Returned to His garden That's returned to the sand
Where is He now Where is He now Returned to His garden That's returned to the sand

Ahh So many words of confusion Colliding with illusions That are crashing down All the places you've been They say they don't want you Coming around And everything you thought that Was so safe is now open wide And you ask me why I am standing here Against the tide
Well Momma don't you worry It's only just a tidal wave But the boat in the harbour It carried my father And he was saved And you ask me if I'm worried Well I can't really say that I am I'm just sitting here Building the Promised Land x4
Ahhh
Don't you remember the civilizations That we wandered through Well tell me what's another empire Between me and you I see the ships arrive each day From their distant shores And I got a place to stay For all the fugatives at my door
Chorus
I read the letters you wrote The things that your worried about You want to know what its like From my corner here You say that it seems like the whole world Is crashing down Well Maybe its true but from over here Were kind of used to the sound
Chorus

Everyday Heroes

Everyday Heroes
Giving their lives everyday
For one another
And who can see
We need not fear
Let five thousand flee
And a handfull return
But that handfull equals the world
Everyday Heroes
Each one a king
Each one a queen
Oh what a people
And who can see
We need not fear
Let five thousand flee
And a handfull return
But that handfull equals the world
Can't you see the ocean
The ocean open wide
Crushing those who try
To stand between the King of Kings
And the one He loves
Everyday Heroes
From where do they come
Where do they go
Oh what a people
And who can see
We need not fear
Let five thousand flee
And a handfull return
But that handfull equals the world
Can't you see the ocean
The ocean open wide
Crushing those who try
To stand between the King of Kings
And the one He loves

Heart of Stone
04:41

What master do you serve
That stains your hands with blood
How does a child become cruel
To those that he once loved
Are you proud of your new position
And the dirty work you had to do
Or were you just following orders
Like others used to do?
Oh brother of mine
Please don't break down my door
I don't want to say
That your not my brother - anymore
Who are you afraid of?
What happened to your pride?
Who could have convinced you
To commit this crime?
What virus has infected you
And put shock-waves in your brain
How could the glorious hero
Have no decency and shame?
(Chorus)
How does the son of glory
Steal from widows already robbed?
Are gangsters your new family now
Is money your only God?
Are these the brave soldiers
That face danger every day
Is this the enemy that you've conquered
Your little children that you betray?
(Chorus)
(solo)
What idol made of stone
Stole your heart away?
Did they give you a metal
Tell me what price did they pay?
I often wonder
How a people could comply
To place their brothers in the oven
Wouldn't you rather die?
(Chorus)

Songs Lyrics
We came as guest and made them kings
We returned as guests and they made us kings
Against our will we were blessed with more
Disenheriting those who waged each war
Possesing that which we didn't want at first
We are - the reluctant conquerors.
Against our will we fight
Against our will we grow
Against our will we learn
Against our will we glow
Against our will we are born
Against our will we die
Against our will we are chosen to stand
Against each and every tide
Forced to be blessed or to be cursed
We are - the reluctant conquerors.
New guests arrive to cause them strife
They who could have been our second wife
New guests arrive to bring them down
And lead them against the one who had enlarged their crown
Against our will we stand alone
Winning more than we ever wanted to own
Disenheriting the whole world that comes to attack
This time we won't give it back
For it was your will to cause us pain
Your jealous rage became our gain
Against our will we are our fathers son
Against our will His will it will be done
Against our will He will make us King
He loves only us for we never wanted anything
This is the story of what's in store
And all will praise - the reluctant conqueror
Against our will we will be blessed
When all we wanted was to be guests
Our Father wants His kingdom to be restored
And we are - the reluctant conqueror
(Chorus)

Redemption Song

Songs Lyrics
Every battle brings us closer to the King
There's a light beyond the darkness
That we will bring
The mighty Pharoah and all the kings of Babylon
They rose so high and then they fell and
Now they are gone
Ahh - But we are your children
The remnant of your Nation
Ahh - Can you hear us calling
Ahh - We're crying for redemption - now
The wicked rise up like the waves of a troubled sea
They only serve to shape the rock of eternity
And we are the lambs led to the alter as an offering
But in the end we will rejoice and we will sing
(chorus)

Songs Lyrics
Talking 'bout Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation
Yehuda the Lion - He's conquering the Land
Menashe, Ephraim, Binyamin and Gad
Reuvain, Shimon, Asher and Dan
Talking 'bout Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation
This is the generation of one Nation under the sun
Made up of many tribes joined together as one
Coming from the east, coming from the west
Coming with nothing and coming with the best
Coming in ships, coming in planes
You ask them why, they can't explain
Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation
From the valley of Megiddo where they first died
I see them coming alive, one by one, before my eyes
Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation
As it was in the past, in the ancient days
Nothing really much has changed today
Maybe its part of the masters plan
That only He can understand
All I can do is the best I can
And build my section of my tribal Land
Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation
And even though they look like this and they look like that
From the tatooed ones to the furry hats
No matter where you go your always going to come back
Cause you can't run away from the place your at
Tribes - The Tribes of my Nation

Dear World

Dear World ever since we knew you
You placed on us such harsh decrees
Seems we bothered all your fathers before you
So we said lets leave We built a new home and did grow
And now you tell us to freeze Tell me why are you so hard to please, Dear World
Well thank you for your inquisitions
And the gates you locked when we did flee
I know it bothers you that we've been blessed
And even more now that were free
But before you count us for the slaughter
See the writing up above
Were not sheep anymore were shepherds
And its you who are being judged
Well you can chase us just like Pharaoh
But if you were wise than you would see
The time isn't ticking for me but for you, Dear World
Well thank you for your sympathy
For the six million souls that were destroyed
You don't have to pretend anymore
You can attack us again with joy
You can condemn us up on the campus
And in the theater and the State
You can bring all the United Nations to seal our fate
But if your boycotts were really sincere
You should stop using our inventions and our cures
And return all the good that we have given you
Over these years, Dear World
Oh thank you for your crucifixion
And the many expressions of your love
How you've inspired us to build G-ds Kingdom with our blood
And now that we've reached the final stage
Your so bothered that your flying into a rage
Every tiny little house that we build Is on your front page
Just like the past it starts with lies
Then our existence you delegitimize
Then who would resist the solution that you finalize
Well were not the same people you once knew
We know your plan in fact were waiting for you
We'll split the ocean again and you can chase us part way through
We'll all be drowned and you'll claim victory
But if you were wise then you would see
The time isn't ticking for me, but for you, Dear World
Dear World you stood by in silence
As we were slaughtered in your lands
And you would stand by again today
And even lend a helping hand
I know it bothers you when we hit back
When we succeed despite each attack
Well maybe you bothered us too
Did you ever think of that?
I for one couldn't care less
If you choose to be cursed or to be blessed
You can sail on Noahs ship
Or you can go down in your protest
For the final flood already began
To give a last chance to those who take a stand
And to save only those who ever lent a hand
For the kingdom will surely be built
And the devil will get his due
And all the angry bothered people
Let them come on through
Were finally doomed and all the fools agree
But if you were wise then you would see
The time isn't ticking for me, but for you
Dear World
