The Disease

It has always amazed me And something I could never understand How much hate and evil Can hide in the heart of man. Living a nightmare Beyond our wildest dreams Living in times like the world has never seen The government's foolishly opened the door And now it's hard to trust anyone anymore. We cannot spend our lives in fear But stand strong united and after the shock and mourning Dry our tears The disease spreads far and wide And in our midst they hide. Fighting fire with fire Only makes the flames grow higher As Satan has his day I pray with all my heart That all hate and war will be soon swept away. And Satan is no more And God will have his day. Man has shown he can''t live together and get on It's always the innocent who suffer most Let God's kingdom soon become And all hate and war and suffering will be gone Man will finally live in peace Forever.

Peter, you've chosen all the right words for the statement you make. All of these global crises affirm the same hard truth—man cannot govern himself successfully.
