If I Had One Wish
If I had one wish I would make the world a safer place,
there would be no hate or predjudices against another's race.
So many people are judging one another,
there would be no crime or war against each other.
So much violence is spreading across the land,
maybe someday all united we'll stand.
People should'nt judge the color of one's skin,
we should shake each other's hand and offer a friendly grin.
If I had one wish there would be no cancers,
doctors would have a cure and have all the answers.
No children would die or suffer and have pain,
or take them for granted and take their love in vain.
People would not go hungry or suffer from heartache,
they'd pray together new friendships they'd make.
If I had one wish people would not have to be alone,
they'd have companionship and have someone to talk to on the phone.
Nations against nations I wish it would stop,
before another catastrophe decides to drop.
There would be no homeless people out on the street,
and no more children would ever be severly beat.
