Coexist
I’d rather build bridges and tear down a wall
Why do people hate what they don’t know
Life’s too short not to coexist with all
In a ‘Religious War’ the good only fall
An oxymoron of thought so low
I’d rather build bridges and tear down a wall
The three main faiths answer Abraham’s call
Christians and Muslims and Jews should show
Life’s too short not to coexist with all
We’re really all the same after the fall
Than different, we’re more alike than we know
I’d rather build bridges and tear down a wall
Shel Silverstein showed us the best way of all
“Hug ‘O War” is the only good way to go
Life’s too short not to coexist with all
If only we would heed the Apostle Paul
Faith is the substance of things we don’t know
I’d rather build bridges and tear down a wall
Life’s to short not to coexist with all
