The Last Trumpet

My people if only you would see the beauty in you if for an instant feel all the emotions of the buried love deep inside you Such a glorious day would burgeon forth released from all the human anthem would lift the world to the heavens If only you would see as you were made and meant to be and from the mires and pits open the gates to be released If you could but comprehend your potential AH the world would ring resounding in such joyous unison would raise up all that it is in grateful salutation My people if you would but believe in you A shinning future upon this pedestal of earth would rest in final liberation this recognition in tender mercifulness would come and all tears be wept in compassion This is you my people Too long all your resilience given to the struggle too long shoveled into survival AH my people, awake for there is more courage more fortitude and more love inside you than you ever dreamed possible Awake my people awake.
