Make the World a Better Place
When will we take seriously The Golden Rule,
Treating others as we would like to be treated,
Establishing good moral foundations in schools
Working to see injustice and prejudice defeated?
Championing zero tolerance for bullying behavior
And recognizing the worth of all individual souls,
Especially honoring the rewards of diligent labor
And recognizing a Higher Power is at the controls.
A few simple basics make the world a better place
Each within reach of our own personal potentiality,
Each recognizing the power of fortitude and grace
While developing hearts of kindness and sensibility.
