Oh Justice!
You proclaim your honor in high places.
You walk into the tribunals with sparkling robes.
You seal judgments with the ring you possess,
And sit at grand parties with your rich scandalous friends!
Oh Justice!
Where were you when Christ died in Golgotha?
Where were you when poison gas formed the pyramids?
Where were you when children died of hunger?
Where were you when the rich enslaved the poor?
Oh Justice!
Just answer me and you will see,
What power and glory has done to you!
Were you really present?
Or was evil draped in your gown?
Men’s Justice written on paper!
God’s Justice bled on the cross!
You proclaim your honor in high places.
You walk into the tribunals with sparkling robes.
You seal judgments with the ring you possess,
And sit at grand parties with your rich scandalous friends!
Oh Justice!
Where were you when Christ died in Golgotha?
Where were you when poison gas formed the pyramids?
Where were you when children died of hunger?
Where were you when the rich enslaved the poor?
Oh Justice!
Just answer me and you will see,
What power and glory has done to you!
Were you really present?
Or was evil draped in your gown?
Men’s Justice written on paper!
God’s Justice bled on the cross!
