All the talk of public religion threatens to trivialize God
It's about the next community where such things can't happen, but suddenly do
The dream of International Community still lives
Historical mystery can't fathom Christianity
A modern-day gold rush dashes dreams
Teach us to number our days, oh Lord
It's an excuse that shows no understanding of sin
In magic and warm fuzzies, or the shed blood of Christ?
Don't look now, but we're being shadowed
