Lords Of The New Church - Tasmin Archer

Here’s a man whose voice speaks for everyone

And his actions touch the lives of us all

He rose with energy and style, touch my hand, kiss my child

Sway us all with your smile, he readily accepts acclaim

But soon forgets that he came from the back streets like them

We pray to the east, we pray to the west

And we see the gods of the new church

As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?

Save us from the lords of the new church, don’t say no

Here’s a man some believe is a visionary

Here’s a man who is driven by greed

He made a fortune overnight in a deal that he knew

Was too good to be true, now as he bends the rules of play

Becomes obsessed with the game, has to go all the way

We pray to the east, we pray to the west

And we see the gods of the new church

As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?

Save us from the lords of the new church, don’t say no, don’t say no

They feast and they fly while we pay the real price

But what price do we place on life?

We pray to the east, we pray to the west

And we see the gods of the new church

As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?

Save us from the lords of the new church

We pray to the east, we pray to the west

And we see the gods of the new church

As they undertake their vow, tell me who can save us now?

Save us from the lords of the new church

God of the new church

Save us from the lords of the new church

And I hope and I pray

God of the new church

And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep

Save us from the lords of the new church

And I hope and I pray

God of the new church

And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep

Save us from the lords of the new church

And I hope and I pray

God of the new church

And I hope and I pray and I sing and I weep

Save us from the lords of the new church

God of the new church

Save us from the lords of the new church

God of the new church
