Ochs Phil - Cannons Of Christianity lyrics

Phil Ochs

Christian cannons have fired at my days

With the warning beneath the holy blaze

And bow to our authority

Say the cannons of Christianity

Oh the children will be sent to schools

Minds of clay are molded to their rules

Learn to fear all of eternity

Warn the cannons of Christianity

Holy hands will count the money raised

Like a king the Lord is richly praised

On a cross of diamond majesty

Say the cannons of Christianity

Missionaries will travel on crusades

The word is given, the heathen souls are saved

Conversions to our morality

Sigh the cannons of Christianity

Come the wars and turn the rules around

Defend your soul on the battle ground

And the Lord will march beside me

Drone the cannons of Christianity

Cathedral walls will glitter with their gold

And the sermons speak through silver robes

Building castles amidst the poverty

Say the cannons of Christianity

Worship now and wash your sins away

Drop the coins, fall to your knees and pray

Cleanse the world of all hypocrisy

Smile the cannons of Christianity

Christian cannons have fired at my days

With the warning beneath the holy blaze

And bow to our authority

Say the cannons of Christianity

Cry the cannons of Christianity
