OH MONEY GOD

Oh money god
How powerful thou art
Thou art the most powerful god I know.
Thou taketh away every feeling
Except power,
Thou taketh away all love
Except thine.
thou separatest not blood from oil;
Only father from mother,
Sister from brother,
Friend from another.
Lead us not into the temptation
Of giving you away,
Least we learn
How powerful
thou really are
