Over
Valiantstar 1961 (Sydney)
Over ninety charges where's the kitchen sink?
They need a Saviour, they've come to the brink!
Like iron and clay they cannot mix.
Bring on the day there's no other fix.
So on and on they stumble, fools lead the way;
Everyone entangled by the lies they replay.
Tearing us apart divided we can't stand.
Hell fire released with a cunning slight of hand..
Does climate change cause earthquakes? Or stop the wind to blow? Can it control the heavens? Can it reverse the flow?
They may go on for decades
No one really knows.
The writings on the wall though
He calls to those He chose.
