Like the ancient Roman Empire this world is doomed to fall And it's much too big a thing for mortal man Just take a look around and see the writing on the wall Somehow we've got to find a helping hand This world has never been in the awful shape it's in And people scorn the things our leaders do It's time a prayer was spoken from the hearts of every man Jesus take a hold and lead us through The mighty roar of gunfire is now a local sound And our city streets are filled with angry men Law's now a mockery throughout our troubled land And destruction seems to be the current trend This world has never been in the awful shape it's in And our leaders seem in doubt what to do It's time a prayer was spoken from the hearts of every man Jesus take a hold and lead us through Jesus take a hold and lead us through
