You Must Know God

You must know god to him have you been talking for according to you death by war god condone
But are you one by sin who is untainted that you should be the first to cast the stone
You say the other side is the guilty party but they see things quite differently to you
And are they not entitled to their opinions for what is true to one to another is untrue?

You must know god you seem so sure of yourself you go to his church every sunday
And with your religious kin you sing his praises and at his altar bow your head and pray
And ask him to watch over our brave soldiers as you call them who shoot to kill in a country far away
And when you pray our good guys will kill all of the bad guys you must believe what our political leaders say.

You must know god when you say your god is the real god which makes you one of the privileged few
And you are convinced you are on the road to heaven and each to their own god you say is not true
But you don't pray for poor war misplaced people and you don't pray for the boat refugees
Who flee from war torn lands destroyed by those you pray for in leaky boats across the dangerous seas.

You must know god when you say your god is the real god though with your thinking all would not agree
For they too think that their god is the real god and they too pray to god for their war victory
And they like you believe that they are privileged and that all people are not equal in god's sight
But they are wrong even as wrong as you are and like they say two wrongs don't make a right.
