"Fool Fool"

"Fool Fool" song #12

So many thoughts run through my mind concerning this song. In my thoughts, when I wrote this, I saw the times we were living in back in the 70s, as being flooded with ideas and policies that confused our thinking and our understanding. It is even more so today. We are buried under a virtual flood of ignorance and lies, ideas and beliefs that go against our fundamental
and traditional values.

In our religious world, the churches are being called on to accept ideas and lifestyles that are totally contrary to the things that they have based their beliefs on. Specifically the Bible. In my mind, I think you nullify all your beliefs when you re-write and alter the interpretation to make a very wrong and sinful way acceptable.

 "Fool Fool" 

(Floods of the ages)

words and music by John Blodgett

Isaiah 43:2

When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.

 

Floods of the ages are over my head,

covered in darkness, in league with the dead

False prophets before me were blinding my eyes,

following fools believing their lies

Fool Fool, I was a fool,

Satan was using me as a tool

So deep in the darkness that I couldn't hear

The voice of my savior so soft on my ear

On one certain evening there met a crowd,

my name was mentioned while heads were bowed

While friends were calling I saw a sign

A soul was saved, and praise God, it was mine

Fools fools, a world full of fools

Satan is using the world as a tool

But out of the darkness a light appears

And they voice of the Savior falls soft on each ear

Now I thank God for the people who pray

For brothers and sisters who've gone astray

Satan spreads darkness, evil and snares

But Souls will be saved through the power of prayer

Fools fools, a world full of fools

Satan is using the world as a tool

But out of the darkness a light appears

And the voice of his spirit falls soft on each ear

Out of the darkness a light appears

And the voice of our Savior falls soft on each ear
