Stress of This World

Stress of the world washed away As I start a new day Hopes of a better tomorrow as I break With it my heart it takes I dream of a place were peace lives Where everyone their hearts openly give But then I wake to see I am still here Where children live in fear This world where moneyy rules and greed devides Wishing there was somewhere to hide Not wanting to see to destruction and crime Just wanting to go back in time Back to when life was free and fun Where everyone had their momet in the sun Back to when it was ok to laugh and be a child And it was ok to be a little wild But now I am grown and have the stress of this world And heaven knows I am just one girl So I will dream and hope as long as I can And I will let God take care of his plan For it is him who can change it all And only him who knows when we fall So I will put my trust in God above An let him shower me with his love
