LYRICS: The Oh Hellos – Soldier, Poet, King

[Verse 1]

There will come a soldier

Who carries a mighty sword

He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord

He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

[Verse 2]

There will come a poet

Whose weapon is His word

He will slay you with His tongue, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord

He will slay you with His tongue, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

[Verse 3]

There will come a ruler

Whose brow is laid in thorn

Smeared with oil like David’s boy, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord

Smeared with oil like David’s boy, oh lei oh lai oh Lord

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh Lord

He will tear your city down, oh lei oh lai… oh

[Outro]

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh

Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh
