BARRICADES
To keep out the danger of the gun and bomb blast
they've put up barricades round the streets of Belfast.
There're barricades round the hearts of people in pain,
That need to be torn down and never built again.
These barricades are keeping out justice and peace;
Help us trust again and to believe in you.
It's hard to pull down the walls that seem to protect.
It's hard when you have never been shown respect.
Guns and bullets bombs and bricks have all played a part
To put the barricades around love of the heart.
Jesus, help us find a way;
Make our troubles cease.
Pull down the barricades;
Let your message get through.
