I Had No Right

god of the poor man, this is how the day began, eight codefendants, i daniel

Berrigan, and only a layman's batch of napalm.  we pulled the draft files out,

We burned them in the parking lod, better the files than the bodies of

Children.	i had no right but, for the love of you.  i had no right, but for

The love of you.  many roads led here, walked with the suffering, tom in

Guatemala, philip in new orleans it's a long road from law to justice.  i went

To vietnam, i went for peace, they dropped their bombs, right where my

Government knew i would be.  i had no right, but for the love of you.  i had no

Right, but for the love of you.  and all my country saw were priests who broke

The law.  first it was question, then it was a mission, how to be american, how

To be a christian, if the law is their cross, and the cross is burning.

Aaaaah--the love of you.  aaaaah--the love of you.	god of the just, i'll never

Win a peace prize, falling like jesus, now let the jury rise, it's all of us

Versus all that paper.  they

Took the only way, they know who is on trial today, deliaver us unto each

Other this day-- i had no right, but for the love of you.  i had no right but

For the love of you
