Our Turn Now - CARMAN

«Almighty God, We acknowledge our dependence

Upon thee, and beg for thy blessings upon us

Our parents, our teachers and our country»

«Good evening.

This is Charlene Lewis for the 6:00 news.

Today, June 25, 1962,

the Supreme Court has ruled that school prayer and Bible reading shall cease

in all public school systems.

It is now official;

God has been removed from the

classroom in the United States of America.»

Us, our Parents, our Teachers, our Country

Us, our Parents, our Teachers, our Country

Us, our Parents, Our Teachers, Our Country

The ball got dropped in '62

They wouldn’t let children pray in school

Violent crime began to rise

The grades went down and the kids got high

Free love, gay rights

No absolutes, abortion on demand

Brought VD, AIDS, and no morality

Today no one knows right from wrong

There’s blood on people’s hands

World, you had your turn at bat

Now stand back and see

That it’s our turn now

Something’s gonna change

We’re gonna bind the devil

At every hand by the power of Jesus' name

Well, it’s our turn now, think it no surprise

When the gates of hell come crashing down

And you begin to see the church arise

The Supreme Court said, «No God at all»

With the Ten Commandments on their wall

God’s Word in the library won’t appear

(no no nowhere)

We have a religious apartheid here

Humanism, atheism, no Bible

Our consciences have died

We need to seek our God and call His name

The church triumphant’s still alive and

We’re gonna turn the tide

'Cause with boldness and conviction

We proclaim

That it’s our turn now

Something’s gonna change

We’re gonna bind the devil

At every hand by the power of Jesus' name

Well, it’s our turn now, think it no surprise

When the gates of hell come crashing down

And you begin to see the church arise

Arise and shine, for the Light has come

It’s time to lift the name of Jesus high x4

Yes, it’s our turn now

Something’s gonna change

We’re gonna bind that devil

At every hand by the power of Jesus' name

It’s our turn now, think it no surprise

When the gates of hell come crashing down

You begin to see the church arise

It’s our turn — now

It’s no surprise

To See those gates of hell crash down

When you begin to see the church arise
