God Believes In You
My heart hurts to see such pain
Sorrow, tears, and sadness,
Why do we let Satan reign?
Why can’t we stop the madness?
Why do we wait for trouble to come
To find us while we are weak,
Why can’t we come together as one
It is unity that we should seek.
Why aren’t we strong in faith and love
Why do we focus on money instead,
Why do we always push and shove
To try and get ahead.
Why do thousands have to die
Before we can see each other,
Why do we first have to cry
Before we can come together.
To show compassion and understanding
Is a gift that we should use,
Stop the hatred, stop demanding
Stop the evil and abuse.
Don’t let these lost souls
These devils without hearts,
Make us submit to their goals
And try to tear us apart.
Look with your heart and not your eyes
And pray as you will,
Forget the malice, forget the lies
And remember,
God believes in you still.
