Jesus, Take A Hold

[Verse 1]
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 helpin' hand

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
The mighty roar of gunfire is now a local sound
And our city streets are filled with angry men
Law is now a mockery throughout our troubled land
And destruction seems to be the currеnt trend

[Chorus]
This world has never been in thе awful shape it's in
And our leaders seem in doubt of 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

[Outro]
Jesus, take a hold and lead us through
