Sister (It's a Mean World) Lyrics

I heard a Galilean tell a friend of mine
She could drink the water that could bring her life
Sitting by the well I heard a prophet tell her
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world

Brother fighting brother in a world gone wild
Sometimes you can feel just like a motherless child
If you want protection, follow my direction
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world

He went to tell her that it's dark outside
The world is being darkened by the father of lies
You can be a light if you wanna do what's right
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world

Now it ain't gonna love you if you're gonna love Me
That's the price you pay if you wanna be free
As they walked away I heard the prophet say
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world

Roaring like a lion, Satan's out to kill
Anoyone who'll cross his way
And if your heart is fixed upon My Father's will
You will never have to be afraid
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world

I heard a Galilean tell a friend of mine
She could drink the water that could bring her life
Sitting by the well I heard a prophet tell her
Sister, it's a mean world
He said, sister, it's real a mean world
