Hands Of Hate Lyrics

Oh, Misses Shepard I heard about your son
He was filled with glory until hates gun
And he cried at that fence
Like a scarecrow, afraid
As those boys beat him dry
With the hands of hate

And Lawrence King never saw 9th grade
Before that bullet was forced into his brain
By a bully, a madman
A classmate of rage
Just at 15, young Larry
Was sent to his grave

And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and learn not to hate?
And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and be one human race

Our friend Tyler was forced off of a bridge
After his roommates filmed and outed him
Making love to another
The same sex as him
And the only sin that God saw
Was the roommates killing him

Poor old Jamey always smiled and thrived
But as the slurs went on, he couldn’t stay alive And he took his own life
On a cold september night
And the bullies admitted
That they wanted him to die

And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and learn not to hate?
And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and be one human race

Did you think about how his mama would cry?
When she was forced with goodbye?
Did you think about his papa when he died?
How will they survive?

And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and learn not to hate?
And we join together in the arms of faith
Can we join together and be one human race

Oh, Misses Shepard I heard about your son
He was filled with glory until hates gun
And he cried at that fence
Like a scarecrow, afraid
As those boys beat him dry
With the hands of hate
