They trudge along staring out
Fear striking in their eyes
Wondering what's this all about
For hope has left them

Riding through the village
Where war stomped angerily
Vengence with death and pillage
He has no remorse or mercy

The dead dig slowly forward
Reaching out of the ground
In shock I stagger backward
Looking into death's eyes

He has claimed their lives
All of them undeserving victims
Wishing they were all alive
For life is so precious

The Lord weeps his tears
For the rain is falling
He wants no more fear
While sorrow fills his heart...
