Where were you
when he held my hand
and did things to me
I didn't understand
whispered to me
that it was your will
ordered me to lie
completely still
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you?
where were you?

Where were you
when I was on my knees
saying make it stop
oh good Lord please
when I finally stepped forward
to try to live with it
and my neighbors all said
that I was full of shit
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you?
where were you?

were you backslapping all the men in red
or feasting on the daily bread
protecting your good name instead
where were you
were you backslapping all the men in red
or feasting on the daily bread
protecting your good name instead
where were you
where were you?

Watch over my children
forget about me
I've seen all that I
care to see
here tomorrow
gone today
they say you work
in mysterious ways
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you?
where were you?

were you backslapping all the men in red
or feasting on the daily bread
protecting your good name instead
where were you
were you backslapping all the men in red
or feasting on the daily bread
protecting your good name instead
where were you

Where were you
when he held my hand
and did things to me
I didn't understand
whispered to me
that it was your will
ordered me to lie
completely still
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you my Lord?
where were you?
where were you?
