Lyrics

The lord loves the one that loves
The lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving

Now the lord helps those that help
Themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you

We all making out
Like we own this whole world
While the leaders of nations
They're acting like big girls
With no thoughts for their god
Who provides us with all
But when death comes to claim them
Who will stand
And who will fall?

The lord loves the one that loves
The lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving

Now the lord helps those that help
Themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you

We all move around
With objectives in mind
To become rich or famous
With our reputations signed
But the few that can reach
To this coveted slot
Don't escape old age creeping
Through their bodies
Like a rot

While the lord loves the one that loves
The lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving
Now the lord helps those that help
Themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you
