Pride and the Prejudice
by Paul Smith

Album: Human Touch


I was raised in a small southern town
The streets rolled up when the sun went down
Idle minds with nowhere to be
We were told what to think and what to believe

Love your brother so he'll love you back
Except for those on the wrong side of the track
Gotta be so careful for the company you keep
We called it love but it was only skin deep

No room in my heart
For the pride and the prejudice
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away

It's been a curse of man for hundreds of years
Hand-me-down hatred, bloodshed and tears
I watch again the battle lines being drawn
Oh, it seems the past has taught us nothing at all

Why are old habits so hard to break
Why is it so hard to learn from mistakes
No matter how I justify what I do
Can't hate my brother and love God too

No room in my heart
For the pride and the prejudice
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away
Oh, wash it away

Open my eyes, Lord, so I can see
How I can love my brother like You
Like You love me

No room in my heart
For the pride and the prejudice
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away
Oh, Lord, wash it away

No room in my heart
For the pride and the prejudice
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away

No room in my heart
For the pride and the prejudice
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away

No room in my heart
(Oh, yeah)
For the pride and the prejudice
(I gotta wash it away)
That keeps us apart day after day
No place in my life
For the pride and the prejudice
Like all of my sin
Oh, Lord, wash it away
Wash it away
