Gospel of the Kingdom |
| A scenery of chaos sets the tone for your diplomacy |
| Bring us in the mood to find your violence attractive |
| Fear makes us believe |
| That oppression is our destiny |
| Silence our conscience |
| Convince us of our privilege by making our neighbours suffer |
| Scarcity, precariousness and creeping instability |
| Are the voices you have summoned to speak in your favour |
| You‘re not heralding the arrival of peace |
| You‘re just postponing the constant threat of war |
| Do you promise us relief |
| Once you have won the last fight |
| Or will you lose your credit |
| When the ever next victory is not in sight? |
| You conceptualize the rescues |
| As much as the plights |
| We are tired of your celebrations |
| Your solemn declarations and your gospel of self-worship |
| You speak of life but your words taste like ashes |
| You might think you are invincible |
| As long as we are held to think we depend on you |
| In adoration of the surface of sway and might |
| Thy kingdom shall perish |
| Thy will be relinquished |
| Oh lord |
| The proud shall be scattered in the thoughts of their hearts |
| The mighty shall be brought down from their blasphemous thrones |
| Oh lord |
| Those of humble estate shall be exalted |
| The hungry shall be filled with good |
| The rich be sent away empty handed |
| Their gospels desacralized |
| We are tired of your celebrations |
| Your solemn declarations and your gospel of self-worship |
| You speak of life but your words taste like ashes |
| Your glory is bizarre and your spirit is full of death |
| Silence our conscience |
| Convince us of our privilege by making our neighbours suffer |
| Scarcity, precariousness and creeping instability |
| Are the voices you have summoned to speak in your favour |
| You‘re not heralding the arrival of peace |
| You‘re just postponing the constant threat of war |
| You are the false angels to tell the lore of submission |
| You are the servants of the lord of this world |
| Thy kingdom shall perish |
| Thy will be relinquished |
| Inverted christ |
| Bringer of sacrifice |
| Lord of lies |
| You shall be replaced |
