The world however didn't wait
And handed him the poisoned drink
And saw everything was vain
So far He hasn’t taken heed
They defied him in his life
Here you can see respectable folk
He cursed the hour that gave birth to him
How fortunate the man with none
The man who never lied
But soon observed what followed on
How fortunate the man with none
How great and wise was Solomon
Then had him murdered just the same
But soon observed what followed on
How fortunate the man with none
To him complexities seems plain
The world however didn't wait
It’s honesty that brought him to that state
They weren’t so grateful as you’d think
The world however didn't wait
But soon observed what followed on
But soon observed what followed on
How fortunate the man with none
How virtuously we had begun
Instead the rulers fixed to have him tried
How fortunate the man with none
You who sit safe and warm indoors
Keeping to Gods own laws
You know what he became
You heard of honest Socrates
You saw courageous Caesar next
How fortunate the man with none
How honest was the people’s noble son
It’s fear of God that brought us to that state
How fortunate the man with none
And as they raised the fatal knife
It’s courage that had brought him to that state
The world however didn't wait
Help to relieve out bitter need
It’s wisdom that had brought him to this state
How loud he cried, "You too my son"
