One World, One Love

One World, One Love

O ver and over we dream of
N ever ending happiness with 
E ternal earthly peace and harmony

W ondrous as it may seem
O nly a short time remains
R elative to the indefinite past
L ove's power will supplant this
D iabolical system of animosity

O ur hearts are burning with
N ascent yearnings for our
E motional release from distress

L ove will soon obliterate hate
O ne world, living together under one government of love
V ery soon it will be humanities reality
E very day pray, for one world, one love.

You write like the truth in the bible has reached your heart. Love will be the universal law of paradise. Grasping such a concept is not for the faint of heart. Thumbs up and smiling in your writing.

Thanks Holly, of course, God is the source of Love, and so we depend on him for this to become our reality.
