Error, reject, move on by Walter Jones

The time is drifting across the troubled land
I step out to touch the wind who understands
I cry at night in the makings of a man
Are you sure this is God’s plan

When the troubles of the world scream out
In pains memory what is the reason for there
To be you and me and I wonder still
Are you sure this is God’s plan

The tide of life burns deep in the hills
when I see starving children it give me the chills
the screaming from weapons and children doing army drill
Are you sure this is God’s plan

A wakened from a weary sleep gunshots ring out
I look to see a woman getting kicked about
And the officer her try’s to save, he is told by her, go away
Are you sure this is God’s plan

The sorrow of the people spread far and near
Many a teardrop is found in a glass of beer
Another baby is born out of wedlock
Are you sure this is God’s plan

The fool that guides the pen along
Writes the story of man but it has not been that long
Since he first on hind legs did stand
Are you sure that this is God’s plan

The bitterness of age plays song into the night
I stopped to listen pretending everything’s all right
Still I think the killer of the tale ran
Are you sure that this is God’s plan

Why would I ask you,
slow to move
likes to pretend
uses up his free will
Ah, you are God's plan
