In the name of and by the power of the holy spirit
May we invoke your intercession for the children of England
Some of whom I have seen, murder so obscene
Some of whom have been taken
Let not another child be slain
Let not another search be made in vain
Jah, forgive us for forgetting
And Jah, help us, we need more loving
You see the teachers are representing you
So badly that not many can see you
Let not another child be slain
Let not another search be made in vain
Jah, 'cause the ones whose beliefs kill children to
Feel the love of you and be healed
And may we all cry, too, for representing you
So badly, so badly
Jah, forgive us for forgetting
Oh, Jah, help us to be forgiving
The teachers are representing you
So badly that not many can see you
Let not another search be made in vain
Let not another child be slain
