Meanwhile Back At the Cross
The devil laughed and said I've won
God has lost his only son
The brightest star no longer shines
Finally this world is mine
Then he gathered all his demons near
He said we have conquered love with fear
Meanwhile back at the cross
All is not lost
Forgiveness is bought with each drop of his blood
It falls to the ground
Mercy abounds
As Mother Mary's tears fall down
To see her precious son pay the cost
The devil said we'll use their pride
We'll attack them from inside
Fill their hearts with vanity
Til their differences are all they'll see
Black and white, rich and poor
To justify their holy war
Take a look around
Turn on the evening news
The devil said there's no way
I'm gonna lose
Hate is everywhere
Love cannot be found
It took me two thousand years
But it's almost over now
God has lost his only son
The brightest star no longer shines
Finally this world is mine
Then he gathered all his demons near
He said we have conquered love with fear
Meanwhile back at the cross
All is not lost
Forgiveness is bought with each drop of his blood
It falls to the ground
Mercy abounds
As Mother Mary's tears fall down
To see her precious son pay the cost
The devil said we'll use their pride
We'll attack them from inside
Fill their hearts with vanity
Til their differences are all they'll see
Black and white, rich and poor
To justify their holy war
Take a look around
Turn on the evening news
The devil said there's no way
I'm gonna lose
Hate is everywhere
Love cannot be found
It took me two thousand years
But it's almost over now
