Mother Of Justice

Mother Of Justice

By Paul McCann

Mother of justice,

here I stand as the wrongly accused, help me here today,

I’ve always been a child at heart and  pray to you each day .

Mother of justice,

flash the light ,  start the fight , stand up for the wrongly accused ,

beaten and abused, its hard to walk in a poor man’s shoes .

Mother of justice,

I need to know that I’m  free to come and go as I please ,

I can’t stand tall as I’ve  been living too long on my knees ,

Mother of justice,

defend me in my innocence, protect me from all harm,

the situations getting tense , time to raise the alarm .

Mother of justice,

Shelter me from all of those who intend to do me wrong. 

They’ve built a case to put me in a place I don’t belong .

 Mother of justice,

beat the drum ,ring the bell ,  send in the truth for everyone ,

let them know what’s going on , for I’m the innocent one .

Mother of justice,

show them that they are in the wrong and set the record straight ,

let justice walk in a poor man’s shoes before it’s too late .
