Heil Jesus
Heil to thee o Lord of grace,
Who’s corrupted words now rule this place.
Who died for us, but all in vain,
Look how evil your church became.
And though heretical this thought must seem,
You must admit it’s most obscene,
How Priest and Cardinal, Bishop and Pope,
Control the many with fear filled hope.
“Go fight this war or go to Hell,
Kill the pagans, O hear my spell”
“They do not believe our God is true,
Kill them all, Their Spirits too”
With these words, the world fills with hate,
To help greedy men enrich their plate,
They control the masses with hate filled speech,
We’re a long way from “Wash Thy neighbours feet”
Your words of power have lost all meaning,
Being a faithful one is most demeaning.
Your church is cruel and loves to revel,
In the fact it helped God, lose to the Devil.
