What Jesus Would Do

If we were sane, well, we'd strive to move on How we'd dare to be brave, how we'd fight to stay strong We'd take all we have and we'd give to the poor Our spirits would rest, though our feet may be sore We'd spare the child and spoil the rod As we tear down the temples in the name of God First let's head for the desert, bathe in the mirage of our sins And we'll have congress with Satan, cause we can learn from him We can learn from him Oh, the things we can learn from him Now, if I were God or his ghost or his son Why I'd command forgiveness unto my will be done And nor would it matter what name or what face They affix upon me, they can't mask my grace Bless the children, bless their humble hearts Praise the holistic spirit, the sum sanctifies the parts Bless the children, let them multiply Blissful fruitful sees grow to do and die And when I await at the pearly gate And y'all come before me, so twisted by fate And each of you ask but one of two things Was it too early or is it too late And then I'd reply And then I'd reply And when I'd reply And when I'd reply Well I'd turn my head and sigh If we were sane, well, we'd strive to move on How we'd dare to be brave, How we'd fight to stay strong We'd take all we have and we'd give til we're pure Our spirits would rest, though our feet may be sore We'd spare the child and spoil the rod As we tear down the temples in the name of God But first let's head for the desert, bathe in the mirage of our sins And we'll have congress with Satan, cause we can learn from him We can learn from him Oh, the things we can learn from hymns
