Ark of Suffering
words & music by Ted Kirkpatrick
You think it's alright to destroy God's creation / They don't have a voice so who cares how we're treating them here / If you read his word you should know that he blessed them / I know your defense is to say "God said dominate them" / Do you think dominate means to kill just for sport / Wear the fur from their backs / train them for circus acts / Take our pets to be gased once their "cute" age has passed / Don't you see in their eyes how they trust us / but man in his sin turns that trust into horrible pain / When God says to man give account of you life's work / we must be prepared to reply "Your creation I loved" / Locked behind steel cage / forced to take drugs we've made / Cut them up just to show / what we already know / Before they die... / who will hear them cry - Gen 1:20-30, Hab 2:17, Ps 145:9,16-17, Ps 150:6, Ex 23:11-12, Jon 4:11, Prov 12:10
