YESTERDAY

[verseode]

      
                

            Yesterday they had a home
            A job and family
            Everything was going well
            As far as they could see
            In paradise they reaped the joy
            That Christmas brought along
            And peace, it rained upon their lives
            How could things go so wrong.

            Their lives were flattened by the waves
            And everything washed clean
            Their treasures stored upon the earth
            Had perished in the sea
            The rich and poor were all as one
            Heartbreak was their reward
            They'd built a temple to themselves
            Instead of our dear Lord.
