Jesus, Take A Hold

Like the ancient Roman empire, this world is doomed to fall

And it? s much too big a thing for mortal man

Just take a look around and see the writing on the wall

Somehow we? ve got to find a helping hand

This world has never been in the awful shape it? s in

And people scorn the things our leaders do

It? s time a prayer was spoken from the heart of every man

Jesus, take a hold and lead us through

The mighty roar of gunfire is now a local sound

And our city streets are filled with angry men

Law? s now a mockery throughout our troubled land

And destruction seems to be the current trend

This world has never been in the awful shape it? s in

And our leaders seem in doubt, what to do

It? s time a prayer was spoken from the heart of every man

Jesus, take a hold and lead us through

Jesus, take a hold and lead us through
