Composer’s original recording:
Arrangement by Jon Burr for piano and tenor voice (as shown above):
Lord be with them
Lord be with them
Those who lose their lives
From the carnage
All the carnage
When the bullets fly
See the leaders
Are they leaders
With just thoughts and prayers?
All these leaders
Never acting
Tell me how they care?
Speeding bullets
All those bullets
In so little time
See the tears and
see the fears and
Ask yourself just why?
In a heartbeat
Gone the heartbeats
Why the U S A?
Other countries
Aren’t beholden
To the N R A
Lord be with them
Lord be with them
Those who lost their lives
All the crying
And denying
And so bullets
fly
“Lord Be With Them” is a protest about the ubiquity of assault weapons on American streets and in American homes. About this song, Gary said “This is a simple little song that I felt I had to write in the hopes that some politician somewhere will embrace what it says. It is is the third song I have posted against the use of assault weapons and I hope my last.””
