No Blind Eye
Don't turn a blind eye to evil
nor pretend life is only good
Don't turn a blind eye to evil
but don't engage in its company.
Do rejoice in the goodness around
plenty of shines her light bright
Do rejoice in the goodness around
but existing shadows always play.
Not enough to simply praise the good
must call out the evil too
not enough to simply praise the good.
Stand strong, and firm in the light
because evil has a mask in pretentious bright.
