When Jesus walked into the temples
And he saw the money men there
And when he saw all of the riches
He threw them all out in the street without a care
He saw the poor as the priority
And seen as money had corrupted
Those who stated that they were acting
In the name of God.
I wonder what he would make of society today
So transfixed on the money
And trying hard to make life pay
I think he would be appalled and ashamed
How little life is worth or valued today
It’s all about the riches now and all about the fame
God help humanity to change
Or are we flawed by default
To always be this way
Where we are judged on status
And how much money you earn
Or on your fame
In a messed up society today.
