How The Mighty

Atlantis, Babel, Egypt

Sodom, Gomorrah

Israel, Babylon

Herculaneum, Pompeii

Rome burned, Berlin crumbled

Hiroshima and Nagasaki evaporated

Evil is nothing new

Down through the ages

God has always judged wickedness

Emperor Chin, Genghis Khan

Napoleon, Hitler, Stalin

Pol Pot, Ede Amin

Tyrants are nothing new

There is nothing new under the sun

Or is there?

Was there ever a time

And few have been the nations

Where so many ten year olds kill

Using so convenient and powerful a weapon?

In all the pagan cultures with human sacrifice

Was there a nation that ever so perfected

The murder of the unborn

As have we?

65 million innocent slaughtered

Oh Yahweh have mercy

And you would, I know

But America seems to want to be on that list

The dubious distinction

Of a people who chose destruction
