Empty Hands Lyrics

He rode in town on a white horse with nothing in his hands He came to gather his people and take them to their promised land When he came, he knew there would be bloodshed But still no violence made his plans
He came to fight in a battle with no guns or money But with his empty hands and with his empty hands With his empty hands, with his empty hands
They said "Hey boy what you lookin' at" as they eyed his dreaded mane He said "My father has sent me I've come back to reclaim" The children whose hearts were so whole and pure Now it's you who'll die in pain
So they lynched the man who fooled the word And all the children gathered in his empty hands In his empty hands, the children all came in his empty hands In his empty hands, oh with his empty hands, in his empty hands
Oh with his empty hands, in his empty hands He killed and made [Incomprehensible] in his empty hands In his empty hands
Oh with his empty, his empty Empty, empty hands Oh with his empty hands
