How Do You See the World

Do you see a division of country
as each nation's flag is unfurled
Do you see a fight to the death as your duty
is this how you see the world?

Do you see a union of all people
around each other everyone's arms are curled
Do you see one world under one steeple
is this how you see the world?

Do you see children seperated from their Father and Mother
as into insanity and despair we are hurled
Do you see the plight of brother against brother
is this how you see the world?

Do you see the world like me
as love and happiness in each person is swirled
Do you see how together we can make it lovely
this is how I see the world!
