The song of the messiah

 

 

I knew it would come

 

Through the march to the gas chambers I sang your belief

 

Through the fires burning Jews for being such, we proclaimed your name

 

On the rivers of Babylon we knew it would be

 

Shehechianu Vikiemanu Vhiganu Lizman Hazeh

 

But wondered we did, how can it be?

 

Can a father see his child suffer needlessly

 

Is there no justice from the Divine judge

 

So now I come to answer thee:

 

You see, the day which has arrived I did see

 

For your future is like my past with infinite clarity

 

The unity, the joy, the oneness, internationally

 

This needed for man to abandoned their plans and folly

 

To let go of endless needless wars of jockeying

 

And through the very self reflection of your own stupidity

 

Through looking at women-hood for a grander harmony

 

Through men dropping swords and buying mushy romantic cards instead

 

Through not seeing the other as an other, but as me

 

Through democracies gift of unity, identification and a big family

 

Through reflection on the evil of tyranny, of me against you

 

Now all realize, and in truth, forever will be
