Lyrics

Let the naked be clothed
Let the blind be led
Let the hungry be fed
And the aged(?) be protected
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
Coz with all the things that men have learnt
To make things that go around the world
Still can't help us, still can't help us
Still can't help us
Look here now
Children go out to school
Smarter than your father
Don't be a fool
Let the people be led
Take care of them instead
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
Coz with all the things that men have earnt
To make things that frighten the world
Still can't help us, still can't help us
Still can't help us
Look here now
Children go out to school, yah
Be smarter than your father
Don't be a fool
Let the blind be led
I beg, take care of them instead
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
Lord, deliver us
