This is for the ones that fought, for the ones that are fighting, and the ones that will be fighting.

lyrics

Are you prepared?

You utterly deranged

For the actual destruction

Of everything that is safe

Are you prepared?

To cast aside your chains

That tether you to reality

And walk a perilous and unknown way?

One more time, one more time

One more time, one more time

Know that you're not alone

In this congregation we walk hand in hand

In this church every promise to god

Is overruled by a promise to man

Let us prepare!

To trade peace and silence out for fight

To accept this duty and honour

To accept this historical plight

One more time, one more time,

one more time, one more time

Shall we prepare together one more time

We've taken our place at the Gabbatha

And we've taken down the body from the cross

And sent out shall now be the flying scroll

Be silent, all flesh, before the fold

And we’ve said, do not harm the earth or the sea or trees

And you will eat the good things of the soil

but if you persist in your wicked ways

you will be devoured by the sword

Build and you shall live, plant and you shall eat;

all your former sins shall be wiped clean.

But if you refuse to repent, again and again

When it fails to rain, we won't lift you out of the drought

Death expands its jaws, opening wide its mouth;

everyone who steals shall be cleaned out

If your houses are full with the plunder of the poor

Then your arrogance shall be brought low

Foreigners from abroad, shall build up your walls

Pay them for their toil, in fat and blood of bulls

You shall journey through the barren wilderness

Without a rest and no one to comfort you
