"Repent ye, and believe the gospel" - Mark 1:15

How many times must we look to the cross

Written in His Word

  1. How many times must we look to the cross
    Before we can really see
    And how much pain and life must be lost
    Before we will bend the knee
    The answer, my friends,
    Is written in his word,
    The answer is written in his word.
  2. How many kids must fall to the knife,
    Slain on the altar of lust,
    How long must they scream, poor kids for a life
    Before we'll abort and trust
    How many times must we watch in despair,
    While our children die without hope,
    And how many barons, will catch in their snare,
    Our kids with their evil dope.
  3. How many people must watch with alarm
    While bombs and terror reign
    How much blood in the name of Islam,
    Before we'll reject their pain.
    How long must we stand and watch evil gain
    While 'Potter' and Satan rule
    Our children taught, again and again
    That evil really, is cool.
  4. How long must we listen to lies and deceit,
    To words that are full of spin
    How much can we take that is harmful and false
    While we fall into hell in our sin
    How many times must we look to the cross
    Before we can see really see
    That Jesus in love, he took all our loss
    From sin and it's pain to free.
