May we all be one on Earth as Christ is One with the Father in Heaven. This begins with forgiving and loving one another.
Catholic Digital Studio has been given permission from Rick Salbato of Unity Publishing to re-produce and re-cut this 5 1/2 hour documentary series, The Miracle of Damascus, about a church-approved Marian apparition and a Syrian mystic named Myrna Nazzour. She has stigmata, experiences visions of both the Blessed Mother and Jesus, and exudes Olive Oil with healing properties, from her face, hands and eyes.
The Icon of Soufanieh also exudes the same oil, which has healed and blessed a vast multitude.
Myrna is from the Byzantine Rite of the Catholic Church, specifically Melkite. A Rite represents a church tradition about how the sacraments are to be celebrated. The Catholic Church has four major Rites: Roman, Antiochean, Alexandrian and Byzantine.
Byzantine.net defines the Byzantine Catholic Church and its history, “… As the disciples brought the Gospel to different parts of the world, they adapted ceremonies of the Liturgy to the customs and music of that people. In the end, four great centers of Christianity emerged with distinctive Christian customs, but the same faith. These centers were located in the great cities of Jerusalem, Antioch, Rome and Alexandria. A couple of centuries later when the capital of the Roman empire was moved to the Eastern city of Byzantium and renamed Constantinople, an adaptation of the Antioch way of celebrating Liturgy was made. Thus a new center of Christianity arose in Constantinople and her ritual became known as the Byzantine Rite. From Constantinople the Slavic peoples of Eastern Europe were converted by Sts. Cyril and Methodius and naturally followed the Byzantine Rite. Today the Byzantine Rite is subdivided into ecclesiastical jurisdictions based on ethnic groupings, such as Greek, Ukrainian, Ruthenian, Russian, etc.”
The film has an Imprimatur and the messages have a Nihil Obstat (no error).
This story is very touching and is pertinent to the unity of all Christians. God wants Christians united under one flock, one visible shepherd, most especially Catholicism and Orthodoxy. The video teaches about love, prayer and forgiveness, living out the Gospel Message through a love-willed and love-centered life.

A Little late but Break It Down by Lecrae from the album Thirteen Letters 116 Clique. The lyrics are…
Let me tell bout my home boy Cory this is the first verse of the very first story /call it the first letter/ you can call it whatever/ long as you hear the truth and leave surer than ever/ Cory’s a new believer actin like he’s in gang/ he run around sayin his Church is the greatest thang(1:10:-4:21)/ He won’t check a sermon unless its his Bishops name/ It seems he forgot to keep Jesus the main thang(1:10-12)/Cause Bishop aint raise up after three days up/ he aint take ya case up/ offering you his grace huh(1:13)/ But Cory stay divided all the time/ not Christ but a man that he standin behind(3:4)/
Chrous: I got this little letter Im tryna break down/ (break it down)/ So you can hear the Truth in the Sound (In the Sound)/ Division (1:10-4:21), A whole lotta Sin (5:1-6:20), I can’t forget the problems of people living within (7:1-15:58)
I got this little letter Im tryna break down/ (break it down)/ But let me tell you Cory background/ he started off crazy parties/ full shawties religious ceremonies where people was gettin naughty( Study the History of Corinth at this time)/ but all that changed/ the truth of God reigned/ The Gospel spread within Him/ like viruses in the veins (Even in such a sinful environment, people came to Christ in Corinth 1Cor 1:4)/ but mayne even tho his hearts rearranged/ he found himself caught up in some of his old ways/ he layin up with women his sinning was gettin strange(6:12-20)/ he thought the more he sinned the more Jesus pleased to save/ He thought cause he accepted His brother touchin his mother that he was spiritual cause he let em get with each other(5:1-13) /Cory had beef with another within the faith instead workin thru it they opened a court case (6:1-11)/ a slap to the face of the God who gives grace/ Cory’’s outta place tryna carry his own weight
Now Cori got married but every where he turns he sees burn and women waitin to serve him/ yeah an coris learnin’ / satan wishes to turn him away from His wife to satisfy all his yearnings(7:1-40)/ Divorce aint legitamate/ if both are regenerate/ what God put together let nobody put a split in it (7:10-16)/ but see that aint the end of it/ He sought his own benefit/ He would do things that his friends saw as forbiden/ and tho it wad no sin in it/ His homies they was ignorant and they were made weak cause His liberty was their hinderance (8:1-11)/ Unlike an apostle no concern for the Gospel/ no denying his rights nah homie wasn’t that thoughtful…thoughtful…(9:1-23)
maybe I should take a second to explain main that Cori aint a person but a group of people(The Corinthians). many just like Christians today. Caught up in their own worldly culture no respect for divine authority, the Lords Supper, and still exhalting Gifts which are all given by the Holy Spirit to begin with more than love for on another. (11:2-14:40) Everything we have was given by God who commands us live outwardly toward others. I pray none of us wrestle with the Ressurection of Jesus(15:1-58) holla at me if you do. Above all things love GOD and LOVE ONE ANOTHER!

She has danced and toured throughout the United Stares and internationally with such notable companies as the Lola Montes Spanish Dance Company, Luisa Triana Flamenco Dance Company, Jose Greco and Rosa Montoya Bailes Flamencos as well as with many leading Flamenco artists from Spain and America including Genaro Gomez, Cruz Luna, Teodoro Morca , Benito Palacios, Manuel Betanzos, Concha Vargas, Antonio Vargas and Pepa Montes. She first performed with Los Angeles Philharmonic for multiple seasons at the Hollywood Bowl and was a featured soloist with the Los Angeles Opera in their productions of “Carmen” and “La Traviata” at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion.

To take this journey, Carolina has invited one of Spain’s Best Singers Jesus Montoya, to appear with her and the Company. He was born in Seville, Spain into a Gypsy family steeped in Flamenco tradition. His energetic stage presence and unforgettable voice have earned him the name “El Genio Gitano” (The Gypsy Dynamo).

Brother William Marrion Branham was one of the most influential Bible ministers of our time. He was considered by many to be the initiator of the healing and charismatic revival that began in 1947, and from his ministry there sprang a myriad of other ministers who became internationally known. One Historian of that movement stated that William Branham was “a prophet to our generation”, and a Pentecostal Historian wrote, “Branham filled the largest stadiums and meeting halls in the world.” The Full Gospel Men’s Voice, (now, Full Gospel Businessmen’s Fellowship International), in its February 1961 issue, wrote: “In Bible Days, there were men of God who were Prophets and Seers. But in all the Sacred Records, none of these had a greater ministry than that of William Branham, a Prophet and Seer of God, whose photograph appears on the front cover of this issue of Full Gospel Men’s Voice. Branham has been used by God, in the Name of Jesus, to raise the dead!” From 1947 until the time of his passing in 1965, the powerful ministry of William Branham was well known and considered unparalleled in the history of gospel meetings. The impact of the supernatural ministry of this one man was felt not only in North America, but also around the world.

Ancient Irish Hymn by 4Him – More traditional hymns –
http://www.reverbnation.com/reneeparsons
http:/ww.4him.net/index.html (website online) – lead singer – Andy Chrisman, Kirk Sullivan, Mark Harris, Marty Magehee
- You can hear more of the lead singer Andy Chrisman’s contemporary Christian music at MySpace.com at this website address:

FUSE FM
THE CROSS – Monroe, LA – 7am-11am Sundays
KXOJ – Tulsa – 6:00am-10:00am Sundays
Hymn Story:
With its heartfelt poetry and moving melody, “Be Thou My Vision” beautifully expresses the desires of the Christian heart. Though its popularity rose only in the past fifty years or so, the hymn actually has a rich history dating back to the eighth century.
Between the years of 400 and 700 AD the Irish people lived out a passionate faith in Christ. Ireland took up the missionary endeavor with excitement, and the country became known for its all-absorbing efforts to share Christianity throughout the world. Irish missionaries were found from Scotland to Switzerland, spreading the Good News wherever they went.
Some scholars believe that the words to the hymn are the product of a man known simply as St. Patrick. Patrick was born in A.D. 373 along the banks of the River Clyde in what is now called Scotland. When he was 16 he was kidnapped by pirates and taken as a slave to Ireland. There he gave his life to Jesus Christ. He eventually escaped, but he never forgot this experience and when he was about 30 he returned to his former captors with only one possession: the Latin Bible. History tells us that St. Patrick was the man most responsible for the Good News of Christ coming to Ireland. As a result of his preaching, over 200 churches were established and 100,000 converts were baptized.
“Be Thou My Vision” undoubtedly comes from this spiritually rich period. Its prominent theme encourages single-hearted focus and devotion to Christ. In the hymn lyrics, the poet expresses his adoration of God through the many titles he gives him: Vision, Wisdom, Word, Great Father, Power, Inheritance, High King of heaven, Treasure, bright heaven’s Sun, Ruler of all.
Today, we continue to sing the words of this hymn, echoing the poet’s response to God’s many titles. “Thou my best thought, Thy presence my light.”
From website: “Center for Church Music Songs and Hymns”
Lyrics:
Be Thou my Vision, O Lord of my heart;
Naught be all else to me, save that Thou art
Thou my best Thought, by day or by night,
Waking or sleeping, Thy presence my light.
Be Thou my Wisdom, and Thou my true Word;
I ever with Thee and Thou with me, Lord;
Thou my great Father, I Thy true son;
Thou in me dwelling, and I with Thee one.
Be Thou my battle Shield, Sword for the fight;
Be Thou my Dignity, Thou my Delight;
Thou my soul’s Shelter, Thou my high Tower:
Raise Thou me heavenward, O Power of my power.
Riches I heed not, nor man’s empty praise,
Thou mine Inheritance, now and always:
Thou and Thou only, first in my heart,
High King of heaven, my Treasure Thou art.
High King of heaven, my victory won,
May I reach heaven’s joys, O bright heaven’s Sun!
Heart of my own heart, whatever befall,
Still be my Vision, O Ruler of all.

The Son of God is the Sun of God
The assertion that the “Son of God” is the “Sun of God” is frequently raised as another strawman argument that detractors like to knock down. Like these other criticisms, I have already addressed this one, but like sauerkraut it keeps repeating.
The complaint about this assertion stems from the impression that I and others are claiming the words “son” and “sun” are interchangeable and that, according to mainstream etymology, these two words in fact constitute “false cognates.”
In the first place, the phrase comparing “son” and “sun” is usually meant to be a PLAY ON WORDS, not to suggest that the two words are etymological cognates and are interchangeable. Hence, this complaint represents a strawman argument. I for one am well aware that, according to mainstream etymology, the two words are not cognates and are not related. Using this PLAY ON WORDS to make a point is perfectly allowable, but one that is evidently lost on the critic. Acharya S.

The Seven Wonders of the World:
The Pyramid at Chichén Itzá (before 800 A.D.) Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico
Chichén Itzá, the most famous Mayan temple city, served as the political and economic center of the Mayan civilization. Its various structures – the pyramid of Kukulkan, the Temple of Chac Mool, the Hall of the Thousand Pillars, and the Playing Field of the Prisoners — can still be seen today and are demonstrative of an extraordinary commitment to architectural space and composition. The pyramid itself was the last, and arguably the greatest, of all Mayan temples.
Christ the Redeemer (1931) Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
This statue of Jesus stands some 105 feet tall, atop the Corcovado mountain overlooking Rio de Janeiro. Designed by Brazilian, Heitor da Silva Costa and created by the French sculptor Paul Landowski, it is one of the world’s best-known monuments. The statue took five years to construct and was inaugurated on October 12, 1931. It has become a symbol of the city and of the warmth of the Brazilian people, who receive visitors with open arms.
The Great Wall of China (220 B.C and 1368 – 1644 A.D.) China
The Great Wall of China was built to link existing fortifications into a united defense system and better keep invading Mongol tribes out of China. It is the largest man-made monument ever to have been built and it is disputed that it is the only one visible from space. Many thousands of people must have given their lives to build this colossal construction.
Machu Picchu (1460-1470), Peru
In the 15th century, the Incan Emperor Pachacútec built a city in the clouds on the mountain known as Machu Picchu (“old mountain”). This extraordinary settlement lies halfway up the Andes Plateau, deep in the Amazon jungle and above the Urubamba River. It was probably abandoned by the Incas because of a smallpox outbreak and, after the Spanish defeated the Incan Empire, the city remained ‘lost’ for over three centuries. It was rediscovered by Hiram Bingham in 1911.
Petra (9 B.C. – 40 A.D.), Jordan
On the edge of the Arabian Desert, Petra was the glittering capital of the Nabataean empire of King Aretas IV (9 B.C. to 40 A.D.). Masters of water technology, the Nabataeans provided their city with great tunnel constructions and water chambers. A theater, modeled on Greek-Roman prototypes, had space for an audience of 4,000. Today, the Palace Tombs of Petra, with the 42-meter-high Hellenistic temple facade on the El-Deir Monastery, are impressive examples of Middle Eastern culture.
The Roman Colosseum (70 – 82 A.D.) Rome, Italy
This great amphitheater in the center of Rome was built to give favors to successful legionnaires and to celebrate the glory of the Roman Empire. Its design concept still stands to this very day, and virtually every modern sports stadium some 2,000 years later still bears the irresistible imprint of the Colosseum’s original design. Today, through films and history books, we are even more aware of the cruel fights and games that took place in this arena, all for the joy of the spectators.
The Taj Mahal (1630 A.D.) Agra, India
This immense mausoleum was built on the orders of Shah Jahan, the fifth Muslim Mogul emperor, to honor the memory of his beloved late wife. Built out of white marble and standing in formally laid-out walled gardens, the Taj Mahal is regarded as the most perfect jewel of Muslim art in India. The emperor was consequently jailed and, it is said, could then only see the Taj Mahal out of his small cell window.

Sung by the Sea Chanters chorus of the US Navy Band.
Info from http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq53-1.htm :
The song known to United States Navy men and women as the “Navy Hymn,” is a musical benediction that long has had a special appeal to seafaring men, particularly in the American Navy and the Royal Navies of the British Commonwealth and which, in more recent years, has become a part of French naval tradition.
The original words were written as a hymn by a schoolmaster and clergyman of the Church of England, the Rev. William Whiting. Rev. Whiting (1825-1878) resided on the English coast near the sea and had once survived a furious storm in the Mediterranean. His experiences inspired him to pen the ode, “Eternal Father, Strong to Save.” In the following year, 1861, the words were adapted to music by another English clergyman, the Rev. John B. Dykes (1823-1876) , who had originally written the music as “Melita” (ancient name for the Mediterranean island of Malta). Rev. Dykes’ name may be recognized as that of the composer given credit for the music to many other well-known hymns, including “Holy, Holy, Holy,” “Lead, Kindly Light,” “Jesus, Lover of My Soul,” and “Nearer, My God to Thee.”
In the United States, in 1879 the late Rear Adm. Charles Jackson Train, an 1865 graduate of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis was a lieutenant commander stationed at the Academy in charge of the Midshipman Choir. In that year, Lt. Comdr. Train inaugurated the present practice of concluding each Sunday’s Divine Services at the Academy with the singing of the first verse of this hymn.
The hymn, entitled “Eternal Father, Strong to Save,” is found in most Protestant Hymnals. It can be more easily located in these hymnals by consulting the “Index to First Lines” under “Eternal Father, Strong to Save.” The words have been changed several times since the original hymn by Rev. Whiting was first published in 1860-61. One will find that the verses as now published differ from the original primarily in the choice of one or two words in several lines of each verse.

Few comedians can stir up controversy like the legendary Paul Mooney – writer for Richard Pryor, creator of In Living Color’s Homey the Clown and featured guest on Chappelle’s Show. In this magnificent performance at Hollywood’s Laugh Factory, Mooney earns a standing ovation with his relentless no-holds-barred observations on black history, stereotypes, and prejudices, living in White America, celebrity divas and much more!

The idea that behind the global chaos that gave rise to Obamas popularity was a secret network, a transnational hand directing the course of civilization. Yet no account of history including recent times is complete or even sincere without at least acknowledging the behind-the-scenes masters who manipulate international policy, banking and finance, securities and exchange, trade, commodities, and energy resources. Numerous works including scholarly ones have connected the dots between this ruling superclass and the integration of policy handed down to governing bodies of nation-states and supra-national organizations.
The Economist Newspaper in April 2008 pointed to research by academic David Rothkopf, whose book, Superclass: The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making documented how only a few thousand people worldwide actually dictate the majority of policies operating at a global scale. The Economist described this comparatively small number of elites as being groomed in world-spanning institutions [who] meet at global events such as the World Economic Forum at Davos and the Trilateral Commission or the Bilderberg meetings or the Bohemian Grove seminars that take place every July in California. [8]
Long time radio host and author of Brotherhood of Darkness, Stanley Monteith says such persons are part of an Occult Hierarchy that rules the world and directs the course of human events. The movement is led by powerful men who reject Christianity, embrace the dark side, and are dedicated to the formation of a world government and a world religion, he writes. They control the government, the media many corporations, and both [US] political parties. [9]
Before his death, it was prominent American political scientist Samuel P. Huntington who brought the uber-echelon behind the push for global government up from conspiracy theory to academic acceptability when he established that they have little need for national loyalty, view national boundaries as obstacles that thankfully are vanishing, and see national governments as residues from the past whose only useful function is to facilitate the elites global operations. [10]
According to experts, international affairs, foreign and domestic politics and taxpayer funded investment economics are being largely decided by a privileged cadre of families who are dedicated to a New World Order and One World Government.
The CFR, the Trilateral Commission, Bohemians, Masons, the Bilderbergers and other Illuminatus subgroups, my original intention included several chapters on the memberships past and present of the largely unknown powers working behind public affairs. In the end I determined that enough of this type material is already available to the public and that this work would be better served in raising awareness beyond the machinations of financiers and occult ideologues who direct global institutions, by showing that behind their matrix of illusion—which most citizens perceive as reality—is an arena of evil supernaturalism under which these human conduits are willingly organized.
The objectives of the secret orders and the very real forces they serve is seldom perceived by citizens of democratic societies who view national officials as ruling their countries and representing their interests. Yet according to sacred texts, not only does an active collaboration exist between unregenerate social architects and fallen angels, but politicians in particular are vulnerable to principalities and powers. According to well-known exorcist Gabriele Amorth who has performed over 70,000 official exorcisms, Evil exists in politics, quite often in fact. The devil loves to take over those who hold political office. [11] As a result, it is not difficult to see how fleshy gloves such as US Presidents may be unaware of their role as chess pieces on a terrestrial game board sliding in and out of position as they are moved by the god of this world toward the phantasmogoric end game (see 2 Cor. 4:4). If researchers like Dr. Monteith are correct and world governments are to this day influenced by such dark angelic powers, the elite who head the current push to establish a New World Order are directly connected with an antichrist system whether they know it or not. With vivid testimony to this, Satan offered to Jesus all the power and glory of the kingdoms of this world. He said, All this power [control] will I give thee, and the glory of them [earthly cities]: for that is delivered unto me: and to whomsoever I will I give it. If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine (Luke 4:6-7)

Reposted from Nico Nico Douga
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm3243127 (deleted)
UPDATE: The original Nico Nico Douga video has been TAKEN DOWN, after being one of the site’s most popular videos, due to a copyright claim. The video was just shy of 1,000,000 views (977,471), and everyone in the Nico community is pretty (with good reason…this movie is awesome.) With Nico Nico Douga starting to clamp down on fan-made content such as MADs, we may start to see less of these masterpieces…hopefully YouTube will come to their senses and realize that these videos are actually PROMOTING the shows that are contained in them, not infringing on the copyright. Jesus.
ANYWAYS.
–
So I decided to make use of my Director’s account on YouTube (which allows me to bypass the 10-minute limit on videos) and upload the FULL version of this Nico Nico Douga medley, cause splitting it into 2 parts (like the other versions on YouTube that I’ve seen) breaks flow somewhat.
This is the “Chaos” version of the Ryuuseigun medley, which, while busy at times, is probably my favorite version.
I’ll be trying to post a lot more Nico Nico Douga videos to YT, for the people who don’t speak/read Japanese, and don’t want to go through the trouble of registering for an account on Nico.

These are links to the answers to virtually everything you could possibly want to know about the making of JCS 1973 straight from the official commentary on the dvd by Norman Jewison and Ted Neeley.(Transcribed to text)
http://members.tripod.com/bbb1/jcsdvdinterview.html
The 1973 version of the Overture (complete)
JCS 73 was filmed primarily in Avdat city.
Avdat or Ovdat (Hebrew: ?????), is the remains of a Nabatean road station, and is located on a mountain in the center of the Negev Desert on the road from Petra and Eilat.
If you have Google Earth, you can clearly see this filming location. Very cool.
Start at the Gaza strip and fly down to the center of Israel and zoom to about 2000 feet. I have it marked.
I also have a google earth video posted of a trip to this location-keywords film location ricbnh
It’s quite a ride with a surprise. ~Ric~

Geraldines audition, history of being a man and her past songs on the show including ‘Man I feel like a women’ and ‘Feel It’ (whats she going to look like with a chimney on her?)e.t.c
For people who did not catch the show or are not from the United Kingdom. This is not ‘real’ this is a Spoof comedy show, making fun out of shows like X Factor (American Idol for you Americans) Britains got talent e.t.c e.t.c
Geraldine is actually Peter Kay in a costume (www.peterkay.co.uk). The comedy is mainly at the expense of shows like the Xfactor it was not meant to be offensive to transgender people, I can assure you most people I talked to did not find it funny because of that. The funny aspect of Geraldine was the fact that it was peter kay in that costume and her songs e.t.c

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3Zsvml57PE is a video describing how to learn more about the Mormon Church.
This is a video I created from clips from a few movies–The Restoration, Praise to the Main, Emma Smith: My Story–as part of my testimony of Joseph Smith, the Mormon prophet. Please leave a comment about “Joseph Smith, Mormon Prophet”! Mormons revere Joseph Smith as the prophet who was called of God to restore the Church of Jesus Christ in its fullness to the earth, today known as the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church or “Mormons”).
On a spring day in 1820, 14-year-old Joseph Smith sought solitude in a grove of trees and prayed to know which church was true. God the Father and Jesus Christ, “two Personages, whose brightness and glory defy all description,” appeared and spoke with Joseph.
Wondering which of the many churches to join, Joseph Smith had followed the counsel in the Bible’s book of James: “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God.” The Lord told Joseph Smith “that all the religious denominations were believing in incorrect doctrines” and that he was to await further instructions from on high. “In a state of calmness and peace indescribable,” Joseph Smith left that sacred grove knowing the reality of our Father in Heaven and His resurrected Son, Jesus Christ.
Joseph Smith’s first vision stands today as the greatest event in world history since the birth, ministry, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. After centuries of darkness, the Lord opened the heavens to reveal His word and restore His Church through His chosen prophet Joseph Smith.
Joseph Smith saw God the Father and His Son, Jesus Christ, not once, but innumerable times throughout his life. Joseph Smith translated the Book of Mormon, organized the true Church of Jesus Christ upon the earth once more and restored the plain and precious truths which were lost due to the apostasy of men. He lived great and he died great in the eyes of God!

With God On Our Side
Oh my name it is nothin’
My age it means less
The country I come from
Is called the Midwest
I’s taught and brought up there
The laws to abide
And that land that I live in
Has God on its side.
Oh the history books tell it
They tell it so well
The cavalries charged
The Indians fell
The cavalries charged
The Indians died
Oh the country was young
With God on its side.
Oh the Spanish-American
War had its day
And the Civil War too
Was soon laid away
And the names of the heroes
I’s made to memorize
With guns in their hands
And God on their side.
Oh the First World War, boys
It closed out its fate
The reason for fighting
I never got straight
But I learned to accept it
Accept it with pride
For you don’t count the dead
When God’s on your side.
When the Second World War
Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And we were friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
The Germans now too
Have God on their side.
I’ve learned to hate Russians
All through my whole life
If another war starts
It’s them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side.
But now we got weapons
Of the chemical dust
If fire them we’re forced to
Then fire them we must
One push of the button
And a shot the world wide
And you never ask questions
When God’s on your side.
In a many dark hour
I’ve been thinkin’ about this
That Jesus Christ
Was betrayed by a kiss
But I can’t think for you
You’ll have to decide
Whether Judas Iscariot
Had God on his side.
So now as I’m leavin’
I’m weary as
The confusion I’m feelin’
Ain’t no tongue can tell
The words fill my head
And fall to the floor
If God’s on our side
He’ll stop the next war.
