I can't believe I haven't shared this until now! The song was released a few months ago but anyone who HASN'T for some reason heard this amazing song by UK's premier Christian electro-pop band ooberfuse, PLEASE check it out. My huge thanks goes out to this group and the BPCA for being so vocal and creative and just plain amazing! The message is simple and necessary: Free Asia Bibi. Listen to it, share it, say it everywhere -- this woman deserves freedom.
Also, note to ooberfuse -- this song is SO catchy I literally have it stuck in my head all the time.

There's a story of a woman
Who's the mother of five
Three years in prison
Now she's barely alive
"Death to the Christian!"
The angry mob screamed
The penalty is death
They say "she blasphemed!"
In the stifling heat
And the sickening smell
She's sobbing in the dark
Of her prison cell
Crying out for her children
As she bids farewell
They're screaming for the blood
Of the infidel
Free Asia Bibi
Free Bibi
Free, free her now
Dying on death row
Behind prison bars
She can't see the light of day
Or gaze up at the stars
Give back her freedom
Life and dignity preserve
Killing in God's name
Destroys the peace we deserve
Death by hanging
Under 295C
Imprisoned for three years
Now set Bibi free!
Give back her freedom
Life and dignity preserve
Killing in God's name
Destroys the peace we deserve
