The Gift of Song : Crucified

Lyrics and Music by Irma and Marie Carew
(c) 2023 The Channeling Christ Project

 

Jesus I see you as a man, no better or worse than I am
We still have ideas that put us to our death
At the hands of men whose greed dwells in their breast

And people claim to understand your sacrifice and pain
They use your blood to cleanse themselves, while their souls by greed are stained
They're begging for forgiveness, while stealing from the poor
And you'll be crucified my Lord, forever more

Jesus, you were ahead of your time, 
but society will always be blind
Nothing has changed, its still worse yet
The greed inside a human heart puts all good men to their death

And people claim to understand your sacrifice and pain
They use your blood to cleanse themselves, while their souls by greed are stained
They're begging for forgiveness, while stealing from the poor
And you'll be crucified my Lord, forever more

While the greed in men still rules the land,
The rich will prosper by the pauper's hands
The sick will fall and the lame will be laid to waste
For no one listens to what you had to say

And people claim to understand your sacrifice and pain
They use your blood to cleanse themselves, while their souls by greed are stained
They're begging for forgiveness, while stealing from the poor
And you'll be crucified my Lord,
You are crucified my Lord,
You are crucified my Lord
