Lost

LOST

Stranded on an Island
On a beach far far away
There are people who are lost
They cannot find their way

There's trouble in this paradise
There's a war on these sands
There has to be a way out
They need a helping hand

The "Others" who are there
don't like them
The "Others" who are there
feel scared
What's happening to their land
they ask
How could we be prepared

For no one likes invasions
and no one likes a threat
For no one needs to die
and each life's precious,
Yet...

Why can't we find the exit sign?
This Island is their home
not thine

Thy kingdom come
Thine will be done
on earth
As it is in heaven

Give us this day our daily bread
And forgive us our trespasses

As we forgive them
that trespass against us

For ever
and ever
and ever

Amen
