We Beseech Thee
Turn back, O ma
Forswear thy foolish way
Old now is eart
And none may count her day
Yet thou, her chil
Whose head is crowned with flame
Still will not hea
Thine inner God proclaim
Turn back, O man (is your seat comfortable sir?) (mm, I like that
Turn back, O man (is my seat comfortable sir?) (Handle with care
Turn back, O man (can you take it?
Forswear thy foolish way
(See ya later I'm going to the front of the thee-ay-ter
(Hold me while I slip into something more comfortable
Earth might be fai
And all men glad and wis
Age after age their tragic empires ris
Built while they drea
And in that dreaming wee
Would man but wak
From out his haunted slee
Turn back, O man..
Turn back, O man... (hard as a rock
Turn back, O man..
Forswear thy foolish way
Earth shall be fai
And all her people on
Not till that hou
Shall God's whole will be don
Now, even no
Once more from earth to sk
Peals forth in jo
Man's old undaunted cr
Earth shall be fai
And all her people on
C'mere Jesus, I got something to show ya
(chorus repeat first verse
Forswear thy foolish ways!
