A Special Wish

People die for no good reason
    neither they kill for any good one
Endless animosity we spread through the world
And all we just do are vying for the most precious    gold
Christ's love we just seem to ignore
Extending our interests to only those worldly 
    things we want to explore

Pray, that's what I always do
Enkindle our hearts O God,
  not to be drowned by our bravados 
As I utter this prayer fervently,
  I also wish that peace would come true
Change our hatred to love and let us get through
Endlessly, I hope of this special wish,
  let there be peace.
