lyrics

Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice
Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice

One thing’s for sure heaven hears their cry

Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice (oh,oh,oh)
Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice
One thing’s for sure heaven will reply

A mighty river, deep and wide (oh, oh, oh)
A mighty river, deep and wide
Heaven steps down - stands by their side

Jump in and wash your muddy hands
Jump in and wash your muddy hands
Then play your part in the holy band

Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice (oh, oh, oh)
Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice
One thing’s for sure heaven hears their cry

It’s true their tears they fill the sky
It’s true their tears they fill the sky
Heaven’s hand will dry every single eye

No Lord the proud cannot be trusted (oh, no, no)
No Lord the proud cannot be trusted
Yes soon the proud will be thrown down

Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice (oh, oh, oh)
Oh Lord the poor cry out for justice
One thing’s for sure heaven hears their cry
One thing’s for sure heaven hears their cry
One thing’s for sure heaven will reply
