Oh well the days are gone
When men used to run and try to steal
The words of the gospel
Money making of fears
And no fears of the spears
Of using the Lord's name in vain
And I watched them slaughter
The children of the Lord
With the aims and the mighty intentions
Brutalizing the poor
And suffering the more
Till them die along in them sufferation
And even though we did cry
No one had ever tried
To move a hand to help the situation
Then everyone was a shocking
With them own kind of problem
Looking for a solution
And so we went down on our knees
And we prayed to the Lord
Please send us down some blessings from above
For we living in a trouble
So get up on the double
And take them troubles away
And so we went down on our knees
And we prayed to the Lord
Please send us down some blessings from above
For we living in a trouble
So get up on the double
And take them troubles away
And then me ask him
When will this thing happen?
And when will these things come to pass?
And him say make no haste
'Cause we no run in no pace
It's already written in the books of life
And like a thief in the night
The Lord will come
And night time will turn to day
And all what was hidden will be revealed
Like if it's now the judgment day
And some of them a go run to the rocks
But the rocks is no rescue
And some of them a go run to the sea
But the sea will be boiling
And the glory of the Lord will shine in the earth
And the nations shall see his glory
And women and men shall all bow down
And them shall call him glory
And so we went down on our knees
And we prayed to the Lord
Please send us down some blessings from above
For we living in a trouble
So get up on the double
And take them troubles away
And so we went down on our knees
And we prayed to the Lord
Please send us down some blessings from above
For we living in a trouble
So get up on the double
And take them troubles away
