They

They are nameless almighty
They are the numberless few
They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the God we pray to

They are judgment
But they are blind
They are mercy - of a kind

Money hurts them
Power rides them
Poverty is a state of mind

They are the faceless almighty
They are the merciless few
They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the God we pray to

They are history, your daily news
They are wages, union dues

See, they are rough-time
See, they are clean
Onward flying machines

They are the flameless almighty
They are the innocent few
They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the God we pray to

They are bloody
Without blame
They are hatred
Without shame
They are mortal
And they are old
Deadly deadly cold

They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the name we gave Jesus
They is the name we gave Jesus
