The world is against us The world is against us The world is against us and if God is too Let us lay down in the dust bowl And join the dust the wind blows ‘Cross the ruins of a sweet lie We once thought true
The narrow road’s the high road The narrow road’s the high road The gate to it is pressing Only few pass through Lord, are we travelin’ down it? Perhaps we never found it For the broad road of destruction beckons Every fool
Who is man that thou art mindful? Who is man that thou art mindful? Who is man that thou art mindful? Lord, what shall we do? If your will is not to save us But to banish and forsake us Then our prayer for mercy’s wasted In resisting You
The world is against us The world is against us The world is against us The world is against us And if God is too Let us lay down in the dust bowl And join the dust the wind blows ‘Cross the ruins of a sweet lie We once thought true
