I Want a World

I want a world;
where no children suffer.
Where there is no hunger.
No children are harmed.

I want a world;
free of hate.
Free of greed.
Free of racism.

I want a world;
where there are no wars.
Where unity is law.
And spirits are healed.

I want a world;
Where humanity is common.
Where cruelty is rare.
Where love is unconditional.

I want a world;
Where truth is spoken.
Lies are forbidden.
Deceit is unheard of.

I want a world;
Where women are respected.
Where they are equal.
Where they are cherished.

I want the world that the Great Spirit gave us.
