Like the ancient Roman empire, this world is doomed to fall
And its much too big a thing for mortal man
Just take a look around and see the writing on the wall
Somehow weve got to find a helping hand

This world has never been in the awful shape its in
And people scorn the things our leaders do
Its time a prayer was spoken from the heart of every man
Jesus, take a hold and lead us through

The mighty roar of gunfire is now a local sound
And our city streets are filled with angry men
Laws now a mockery throughout our troubled land
And destruction seems to be the current trend
