Going Through My Thoughts

Going through my thoughts,I wonder
When my people will stop weeping
due to bad and corrupt leaders
 As children cry for lack of milk.

When will there be light at dark dawn?
Going through my thoughts,I wonder
How?,we will divorce poverty
It ravages like killer flood.

Unemployment lingers like glue
Violence becomes our daily bread
Going through my thoughts,I wonder
How we bath and swim in sorrow.

Land filled with green plants and honey
yet leaves and sweets are illusive
When will the messiah come?,I cry
Going through my thoughts,I wonder.

yes, it's so true. So much misery in the world. The Messiah is indeed coming soon and I think you will be a worthy one when He arrives!
