Up in the north where the cold wind blows Over the prairie gold Theres a church bell screaming On the steeple high Gather ye children of men
With one hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross Jesus and his family are two things he's lost
March him to the scaffold and string him up on high The call came out from the crowd Theres blood in their eyes and blood in their hearts For, the blood turning dry on his hands
With one hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross Jesus and his family are two things he's lost
He cries Oh Lord what have you done You wont never see heaven or kingdom come He cries Oh Lord what have you done You wont never see heaven or kingdom come
Listen to me my wayward flock He cried with a noose round his neck
I spoke to the lord on the mountain top His bidding was all I could do I spoke to the lord on the mountain top His bidding was all I could do
He cries Oh Lord your works been done Now show me heaven or kingdom come He cries Oh Lord your works been done Now show me heaven or kingdom come
One hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross Jesus and his family are two things he's lost.
