Angel of Vengeance

I remember when I was small

to my school policemen came to call

They told us about their weaponry

and we thought it was cool, when they flashed their batons

Now I'm older and I've seen more

I could tell the right from wrong

And those batons, I've got to say

They shouldn't be used in this way

I tell the priest all I have seen

He tells me, "Kneel before Him, come clean."

I ask him why, what is my sin

He tells me, "Be quiet; non-violence by all means."

I turn the page and seek the Lord

I ask for guidance, from His word

Acts and Daniel, Ephesians and more

Conviction distilled, I am now sure

That keeping quiet is not the way

Equipped and armed, demons I'll slay

Don't judge, don't cry and do not fear

For I am with you, and freedom is near.
