FUNNY HOW WE ALL MUST FACE OUR LIES

FUNNY HOW WE ALL MUST FACE OUR LIES

You reach out to save your people
trusting chariots and horses
There’s no mention of the name of
the faithful God of Israel

Everything looks like you’re winning
Memories of past great triumphs
Swirl about your mind till you have
let that sigh escape your
haughty Mouth

You don’t see your triumph’s heading south


The man in Washington is smiling
Thinks He’s gonna reap your winnings
Thinks He’s going down in History
the greatest president of all time

He is gonna reap the awful cost of
pride in human strength and 
He will soon be faced with evil
welling up to choke His little soul

He won’t know that losing was His role


Everyone who trusted man’s strength
Everyone who said that this was God
Is finally facing up to their conceit
Is finally reaping all the selfishness they’ve sown

Everything is crumbling, fading
All our comforts, all our power
All our lust for ease and safety
now is sliding down to our demise

Funny how we all must face our lies
