The world may look a mess 
But, that is the time for us to confess 
No matter how big, God can clean it 

Seems love has hid and evil has proclaimed 
It will rule and we should be ashamed 
Just like God, we should never quit 

People had rather shed blood than share it for life
They have no useful weapon, just gun and knife 
God’s Word is a weapon worthy of use 

People are selling their soul for pleasure 
That is where their wayward hearts store their treasure
They are being deceived by Satan’s abuse 

Children are starving and being cast away 
Hundreds upon hundreds each and every day 
They will probably never have any concept of love 

Grown ups are not caring to be examples anymore 
The children are not being prepared for what is in store 
It’s just more of the worlds push and shove 

Open our eyes and let our hearts become bold 
Fill us up with Your Word to treasure more than gold 
Let us see what in the mess we must do 

Help us to rise up as an army without number 
Fearless and bold in Your Spirit very somber
Willing to follow directions from You
