True Colours

Some place themselves so high
that they look down on us like ants
all the money is green
hard to see when you have so many accountants

all the blood is red
but their's is rarely seen
do those who have all that they need
send send their own to the front to bleed

The earth is white and blue
pictures from outer space
those who come down and walk around
will surely find it an amazing place
full of beauty and life
being destroyed by the human race
they seem to be very short sighted
for very few of them can see
beyond there own wants and greed
even though they were given
more than they could ever need

should we let them destroy all this land
designed to be God's kingdom
I guess we're going to have to
for this was given to them
and we shall all soon see
the glory of God and his wisdom

for the prophecies are all coming true before us
can you see Joseph falling into trouble
now who will protect his brother Judah
watch for the time draws near
the second coming of the prophesied Messiah
no flesh would be saved alive
if not for the glory of Jesus
