Barbarians At the Gate

Take a look at the picture books, watch the news. Read about it in the papers the are fighting out of the blues. Children are dying, mothers are weeping fathers are fighting till this day i know not why. Barbarians at the gate pull up the draw bridge too much war. Children are suffering what happened to farming, making fine wine and chanting? building fine structures and singing sweet tunes. We say we are civilized by making weapons of mass destruction, we say we are civilized by sending children to war. Barbarians at the gate pull up the draw bridge and flood the carnal we cant let them in they are causing problems for the children. Barbarians at the gate open up your bible and say a prayer cause we are of he who is greater than he who is in the world. Barbarians at the gate we have to give thanks and praises to the king of kings. He is the conquering lion of the tribe of Judah
