Holy War, Holy Violence Songtext
von Deuteronomium

I am ashamed of what they have done
In the name of one and only God
How can Christ be so misunderstood
"Do to others as you would have them do to you." (Luke 6: 31)

Holy, holy, holy, holy war
Holy, holy, holy, holy violence

The father of lies has been blinding your eyes
Every single war is wholly unholy
God will hear the cry of a motherless child
Your reward will be as clear as your deeds
Done in the name of your own


The evil that men do can not be forgotten
Mutilated corpses already rotten
What is killing in the name of love
But mockery of the living God

To cultivate and care, not to destroy
To guard all creation, not to spoil
Distortion of God is selling well
Parade of salvation walks straight to hell

Holy, holy, holy, holy war
Holy, holy, holy, holy violence

The father of lies has been blinding your eyes
Every single war is wholly unholy
God will hear the cry of a motherless child
Your reward will be as clear as your deeds
Done in the name of your own
