Lyrics (courtesy of derekwebb.net)

I have come to give you life

And to show you how to live it

I have come to make things right

To heal their ears and show you how to forgive them

'Cause I would rather die

I would rather die

I would rather die than to take your life

'Cause how can I kill the ones I'm supposed to love

My enemies are men like me

So I will protest the sword if it's not wielded well

'Cause my enemies are men like me

Peace by way of war

Is like purity by way of fornication

It's like telling someone murder is wrong

And then showing them by way of execution

And I would rather die

I would rather die

I would rather die than to take your life

'Cause how can I kill the ones I'm supposed to love

My enemies are men like me

So I will protest the sword if it's not wielded well

'Cause my enemies are men like me

When justice is bought and sold just like weapons of war

Oh, the ones who always pay are the poorest of the poor

So how can I kill the ones I'm supposed to love

My enemies are men like me

So I will protest the sword if it's not wielded well

'Cause my enemies are men like me
