There will come a Soldier
Who carries a mighty sword
He will tear your city down
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord
He will tear your city down
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

There will come a Poet
Whose weapon is His word
He will slay you with His tongue
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord
He will slay you with His tongue
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

There will come a Ruler
Whose brow is laid in thorn
Smeared with oil like David's boy
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord
Smeared with oil like David's boy
Oh lei, oh lai, oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord
He will tear your city down
Oh lei, oh lai, oh

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai
Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh
