My Three Wishes

If I were to be granted three wishes today.
     I'd wish for a mind that would stay clear always.

I'd wish that in the beginning, man had not sinned.
     So that the world wouldn't be in all the trouble it's in.

I'd wish for some toys, so that we could all play.
     And be happy and carefree, together always.

So if these three wishes could possibly come true.
     Then living would be wonderful and we'd never be blue.
