For the Greater Good of God Lyrics

Cover art for For the Greater Good of God lyrics by Iron Maiden

"He gave his life for us He fell upon the cross To die for all of those who never mourn his loss It wasn’t meant for us to feel the pain again Tell me why, tell me why"

I think that part is amazing, I love Bruce's voice on that part, and he has an amazing voice, on the whole new album in my opinion. I agree with ChildOfTheNight, on the meaning, like "Why is there alot suffering in the world?", "For the greater good of God", saying religon has caused alot of war and violence.
