A Prayer For England Lyrics

In the name of 

And by the power of 

The holy spirit 

May we invoke your 

Intersession for 

The children of england 

Some of whom have seen 

Murder so obscene

Some of whom have been taken 

Let not another child be slain 

Let not another search be made in vain 

Jah forgive us 

For forgetting 

Jah help us 

We need more loving 

See the teachers

Are representing you 

So badly

That not many can see you

Let not another child be slain 

Let not another search be made in vain 

Jah calls the ones who’s 

Beliefs kill children too 

Feel the love of you and be healed 

And may we all cry too 

For representing you 

So badly so badly 

Jah forgive us 

For forgetting 

Oh Jah help us 

To be forgiving

The teachers are representing you 

So badly that not many can see you

Let not another child be slain 

Let not another search be made in vain
