Poetry
You had it all, the world around
You dreamed it and it happened "now"
You looked and saw the delight of life
You looked and did not know any real strife
You opened up your heart to God
You asked for rule and soon you got
You said "Lord send us a fabulous man"
You said "Lord end our suffering by his hand"
You were not aware this was God's plan
You were not aware, the man was in your land
You had no idea, the suffering would end
You had no idea, it would be your head
How innocent
How innocent
The children of our God
How innocent
How innocent
The children are soon forgot
They came and took you one by one
They came and said "this is our plan begun"
They came and said "we prayed with you"
They came and said "in spirit, we will die too"
They came and took you by the hand
They came by rule and took the land
They came the scourge of our dear Israel
They came and said "its certain... that we not fail"
How innocent
How innocent
The children of our God
How innocent
How innocent
The children are soon forgot
It was over, in a moment, a moment stretched right out
It was over, in a moment, there was no other way out
It was finished, for the moment, you could not keep the blood from spilling out
It was finished, in one moment, you can't imagine what it was like to be out
How innocent
How innocent
The children of... our God
How innocent
How innocent
The children remembered of love
How innocent
How innocent
The children of our love
