One Nation

I am black
You are white
You are my brother.
I am dark
You are red or light
It makes it better.

When we hold
Fears are allayed
Warmth for cold
For one another we are made.

Our language may differ 
Not a barrier to love, to offer
I am here you there
Yet ,we can care
In prayer, in giving
One nation without envy
