Build Respect For God
Trace the birth of life back down the genes
you find that Abraham is still a king
the father of two sons we know by name
Ishmeal and Isaac are are their name's
The father of the Muslims and the Jews
the father of the Christians and their views
Allah or Jehovah still is God
and yet you fight but over just his name
With the changing times and languages
the words in different country's
they do change
so you have different names in your language
what does it matter
if God has thirty eight name's
but is still the same God
are you wiser than God
do you think that he can't speak
to every one
perhaps all gods are the same God
with just different names
The American Indian
call's him the great white father
what does it matter
if the God remains the same
The bible speaks of peace
Hindu's speak of peace
the message of love is the same
who are you to say
that God can't reach every one
if theirs thirty eight ways to find God
what does it matter which one you take
the message he give's is love each other
and honour him with your actions
killing people does not honour God
Killing people does not build respect
build respect for God
