Oh Mother, oh Father In our time of fear Grant us the wisdom Your message for to hear Send down Your angel band To fill Your hearts with power Oh Mother, oh Father In our darkest hour Ignorance is the enemy And it fills your head with lies It's the kind of bliss that can make you miss The very truth before your eyes It's not who's right or wrong Weak or strong, black or white you see Ignorance is the enemy And it's keeping you from me Forgive me all my pettiness Forgive me all my greed Forgive me for I know not how To live this life I lead Ignorance is the enemy Let's set the record straight If history must repeat itself Why worry while you wait It's a perfect blue and beautiful world You treat with such disdain Ignorance is the enemy And It can only bring you pain Forgive me all my vanity Forgive me my conceit Forgive me when I'm crawling Like a beggar at Your feet Ignorance is the enemy And it wields a mighty sword It can cut you down in a blaze of glory It can nail you to a board If mercy and compassion only had a chance It could fill these holes we've dug But ignorance is the enemy And it's working like a drug Oh Mother, oh Father In our time of fear Grant us the wisdom Your message for to hear Send down Your angel band To fill our hearts with power Oh Mother, oh Father In our darkest hour
