Standard (EADGBE)

I have come to give you life

And to show you how to live it

I have come to make things right

 To heal their ears and show you how to forgive them

 Because I would rather die

I would rather die

 I would rather die

Than to take your life

 How can I kill the ones I'm supposed to love

 My enemies are men like me

 I will protest the sword if it's not wielded well

 My enemies are men like me

Peace by way of war

 Is like purity by way of fornication

 It's like telling someone murder is wrong

 And then showing them by way of execution

 When justice is bought and sold just like weapons of war

 The ones who always pay are the poorest of the poor
