The lord loves the one that loves   The lord   And the law says if you don't give,   Then you don't get loving      Now the lord helps those that help   Themselves   And the law says whatever you do   Is going to come right back on you      We all making out   Like we own this whole world   While the leaders of nations   They're acting like big girls   With no thoughts for their god   Who provides us with all   But when death comes to claim them   Who will stand,   And who will fall?       The lord loves the one that loves   The lord   And the law says if you don't give,   Then you don't get loving      Now the lord helps those that help   Themselves   And the law says whatever you do   Is going to come right back on you      We all move around,   With objectives in mind,   To become rich or famous,   With our reputations signed,   But the few that can reach,   To this coveted slot,   Don't escape old age creeping,   Through their bodies,   Like a rot      While the lord loves the one that loves   The lord   And the law says if you don't give,   Then you don't get loving   Now the lord helps those that help   Themselves   And the law says whatever you do   Is going to come right back on you
