about

Adapted from Psalm 74 and my experience of helping at a shelter program downtown.

lyrics

rise, rise up, rise up O God, defend your cause/ how long, how long will your enemies mock you
O Lord/rise, rise up, rise up O God, defend your cause/why, why why why do you hold back your right hand/rise, rise up, rise up, O God, defend your cause/out on the street there’s injustice, Lord, injustice my God/rise, rise up, rise up O God, defend your cause/even in your church,
my Lord/there is corruption/rise, rise up, rise
up O God, defend your cause/I met him in the
line outside in the shadow of the steeple with the hungry people/he said, the bread of God will come to those who wait/and waiting is a wonderful thing ‘cause God in heaven is up to something/ trust and you’ll receive all you need/back to the house in the burbs with the wife and the family waiting on the landing/same as the neighbor next door more more more/then it’s down to the costco store got to fill up my basket belly is elastic/home to the comfy chair the world can’t get me there/don’t let go, don’t let go of the dove in your hand, my Lord/don’t forget, don’t forget, your loving promises don’t forget, my Lord/ rise, rise up, rise up, O God, defend your cause

about

Roots rock with percussive guitars and fierce drums anchoring the energetic folk songs. Their current release “Oil” ... more (Produced by Alan Shacklock - Roger Daltrey, The Alarm, Meatloaf, Jeff Beck, Mike Oldfield) and the French version “Huile de paix” have received high praise from listeners and critics who say it sounds like a crazy blend of The Chieftans, Dave Mathews Band and The Who. less
