If Only It Could Be

Where children play without a care
No harm to come from anywhere
Where sleep will come in a warm bed
And they will always be well fed
If only it could be…

Where every child has books to read
And parents to fill every need
Where harm will not get in the way
As they play games throughout the day
If only it could be…

Where children taught kind words to say
To make another’s pain go ‘way
Where each is given lots of love
And taught there is a GOD above
If only it could be…
