She watches from on high, the puppets below,
dancing to the marionette's sad tune.
The winds of change are coming too soon,
as it was written so many years ago.
Such a sad life the puppets live every day,
always at their master's beck and call.
Millions upon millions are in thrall,
such an evil, heart saddening ballet.
Waves wash the sand out from under limp feet,
fall down, brush off, start over again.
To break free they have to praise God, Amen,
living for the Lord, what a spiritual treat.
She knows God, she came to him very young,
also knows the devil and his lying tongue.
