This is a track from Faith, Family & Freedom, our 54th album, recorded in 2025. It was also released as the ‘b’ side of our 11th single. The ‘a’ side is DEI Must Die (Kill A Communist For Christ).

Have you ever thought about your soul? Can it be saved?
Perhaps you think when you are dead, you stay in your grave.
Is God a thought inside your head or a part of you?
Is Christ just a name you read in a book when you were at school?

I think it is true it was people like you who crucified Christ.
I think it is sad the opinion you had was the only one voiced.
Will you be so sure when your day is near that you don’t believe?
You had the chance but turned away; now you can’t retrieve.

Could it be you’re afraid of what your friends might say
if they knew you believe in God above?
They should realise before they criticise
that God is the only way to love.

Is your mind so small that you have to fall
in with the pack wherever they run?
Will you still sneer when death is near
and say you may as well worship the sun?

Perhaps you’ll think before you say God is dead and gone.
Open your eyes and just realise that he is the one,
the only one who can save you now from all this sin and hate
or will you still jeer at all you hear? Yes, I think it’s too late.

When you think about death, do you lose your breath or do you stay cool?
Would you like to see the Pope on the end of a rope? Do you think he’s a fool?
Well, I have seen the truth. Yes, I’ve seen the light and I’ve changed my ways
and I’ll be prepared when you’re lonely and scared at the end of our days.
