A D Christian cannons have fired at my days D A With the warning beneath the holy blaze Bm G And bow to our authority C D Say the cannons of Christianity Oh the children will be sent to schools Minds of clay are molded to their rules Learn to fear all of eternity Warn the cannons of Christianity Holy hands will count the money raised Like a king the Lord is richly praised On a cross of diamond majesty Say the cannons of Christianity Missionaries will travel on crusades The word is given, the heathen souls are saved Conversions to our morality Sigh the cannons of Christianity Come the wars and turn the rules around To bend your soul on the battle ground And the Lord will march beside me Drone the cannons of Christianity Cathedral walls will glitter with their gold And the sermons speak through silver robes Building castles amidst the poverty Say the cannons of Christianity Worship now and wash your sins away Drop the coins, fall to your knees and pray Cleanse the world of all hypocrisy Smile the cannons of Christianity Christian cannons have fired at my days With the warning beneath the holy blaze And bow to our authority Say the cannons of Christianity
