A world of hate
Should our tribe and race determine our fate?
Is life still a precious gift?
Do we teach to condemn or to uplift?
A world of war
Should we love with our hearts, or bite with our jaws?
Should we have destroyed the Middle East?
After Iraq, Libya, and Syria; which country is next on our list?
A world of no rest
Should we always interfere in everyone's nest?
Do we help ourselves when we help others?
Or hurt ourselves when we bother?
Forward ever - backward never, we move on
Despite some gun-thirsty blood-thirsty demons
That seek to divide rather than unite
We will always overcome the darkness of the night
A child is born to be loved, and to love
But some parents teach the hateful curve
My heart cries and cries and cries
As I seek truth in a world full of lies
The souls of the just will have eternal peace
But the pains of the evil will never cease
I cry and pray for the lives in the school and the church
Please come O God, the violence is much
Into your hands O God, I commend my spirit
As I live in a world of hate, war, and deciet
I love this life, but hope for a best world
A place of love and place when I am called
