I'LL PRAY
AND PRAY
THAT YOUR COUNTRY
UNDERGOES RECOVERY
USE THE POWER
TASTE THE BLISS
HARVEST SALVATION
NOW IS THE TIME
GET ON THE RIGHT (LEFT) SIDE
AND YOU'LL BE GODLIKE
ESCAPE YOUR OLD LIFE
OF BONDAGE AND SIN
RAISE YOUR HEAD FROM THE ASHES
FROM THE FIRE
UND SO WERDE ICH BETEN
UND ABERMALS BETEN
AUF DASS EUER LAND EINE GENESUNG ERFAHREN WIRD
UND IHR EURE MACHT NUTZEN WERDET
GLUCKSELIGKEIT ZU SEHEN
UND DAS HEIL ZU ERNTEN
