I Know

I know, I have always known Exactly where I stand. My will is His will, I rest in his hand. And if the day of terror reaches my abode, That portion of the ghetto I've come to call home, And if evil enters with the sword, I will go out proclaiming Jesus is Lord. But on the other side of the sea The governments gather their killing machines, bombs taller than housetops, "They'll show us this time." Perhaps , perhaps, perhaps. But I live in love, joy and peace, So what do they parade before me, Just more of that killing disease. It is hard to be a human Living on Earth, But it always has been.
