(as sung) When wilt Thou save the people, Oh, God of mercy, when? The people, Lord, the people, Not thrones and crowns, but men! Flowers of Thy heart, Oh God, are they. Let them not pass, like weeds, away, Their heritage a sunless day. God, save the people! Shall crime bring crime forever, Strength aiding still the strong? Is it Thy will, Oh Father, That men shall toil for wrong? 'Oh, NO!' say Thy mountains, 'NO!' say Thy skies, Man's clouded sun shall brightly rise, And songs be heard, instead of sighs! God, save the people! 🎸🥁🎶🎹🎻 When wilt Thou save the people, Oh, God of mercy, when? The people, Lord, the people, Not thrones and crowns, but men! God save the people, for Thine they are Thy children, as Thy angels, fair. God, save the people from despair! God, save the people! (Oh, God save the people!) God, save the people!

Before that, a dear friend of mine played Jesus in 2 productions of Godspell- he did really well in both and encouraged me to try doing it myself when the opportunity arose. Steve passed away in 2020 and I always think of him especially whenever I hear this song. May you Rest In Peace and Power Steve!😢❤

I grew up with the original Broadway cast recording, which I got as a Christmas gift in 1973. However, I think when I get another recording of Godspell, it will be this film soundtrack. After all, along with all other positives (slightly more sophisticated arrangements, maybe even a more confident-sounding cast), how can I deny The Chief?

The HOLY BIBLE says, "THOU SHALT NOT MURDER" The brainwashed U.S. soldiers should not have invaded Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Afghanistan and Iraq. Why do the U.S. soldiers keep defending their betrayers, the evil Devil worshipping Freemason politicians ? “Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.” Day by day, day by day, Oh dear LORD, three things I pray... To see You more clearly. Love You more dearly. Follow You more nearly, day by day... If people do not know I AM is in control, then they will be remote controlled. "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding." ~ HOLY BIBLE, Proverbs 3:5
