lyrics

(Inspired by the Bible, Habakkuk 2:9, 12, 15-17)

Woe to him who builds a realm by unjust gain to set his nest high
Woe to him who builds a city with bloodshed and establishes a town by crime

The violence you have done will destroy you
and your destruction of the animals will terrify you

For you have shed, you have shed, man’s blood
You have shed, you have shed, animal’s blood

Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbors pouring it from the wineskin
‘till they are drunk, so that he can gaze on their naked bodies

Now it’s your turn to drink and be exposed
The cup from the Lord’s right hand is coming around to you
and disgrace will cover your glory

The violence you have done will destroy you
and your destruction of the animals will terrify you

For you have shed, you have shed, man’s blood
you have shed, you have shed, animal’s blood
