Lyrics:
They claim the virtues of saints in prayer, but their deeds betray their words And they can't hide the evil inside with all the fasting and prayer in the world They level homes where we praise the Lord; they cause fear and they cause pain They swear they take life in the Name of God, but they lie; they take it in their own name Chorus: Rise up, protectors of this mosque and church and synagogue And of all the houses where we praise the Name of God Rise up, protectors of this woman and child and sacred life And let's be one of the people out there praying for some peace tonight They tell us our faith is a dream and a lie, and they say there's no creator of man But they'll climb the mountain of reason and find us there holding reason in the palm of our hand And they judge us and command us not to judge and they demand that we leave beliefs we hold But prayers aren't verdicts and you do believe in the Unseen unless you saw the world unfold Chorus And I remember the words that were spoken how all the earth were fit to pray So it hurts to see fields of gold broken or the cold crystals melt away And all the shrines and the lands and the boundaries can't outweigh the weight of the soul So we protect the choice and the reason and the freedom to live and love and grow old Chorus
