Lyrics:

(Verse)
Up in the north where the cold winds blow
Over the prairie gold 
There's a church bell screaming 
On the steeple high 
Gather ye children of men 

(Verse end)
With one hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross 
Jesus and his family are two things he's lost 

(Verse 2)
March him to the scaffold and string him up on high 
The call came out from the crowd 
Theres blood in their eyes and blood in their hearts 
For, the blood turning dry on his hands 

(Verse end)
With one hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross 
Jesus and his family are two things he's lost 

(Chorus)
Christ oh Lord what have you done 
You wont never see heaven or kingdom come 
Christ oh Lord what have you done 
You wont never see heaven or kingdom come 

(Verse 3)
Listen to me my wayward flock 
He cried with a noose round his neck 

(Verse end)
I spoke to the lord on the mountain top 
His bidding was all I could do 
I spoke to the lord on the mountain top 
His bidding was all I could do 

(Chorus)
Christ oh Lord your works been done 
Now show me heaven or kingdom come 
Christ oh Lord your works been done 
Now show me heaven or kingdom come 

(Verse end)
One hand on the trigger, one hand on the cross 
Jesus and his family are two things he's lost.
