The Plight

People do  you hear what I say,

Is it yes or is it nay.

People do you hear what I say,

Here  or a  world away.

People do you hear what I say,

That there  may come a day.

People do you hear what I say,

That all disease will be wiped away.

People do you hear what I say,

You know that we will pray.

People do you hear what I say,

For a life of no dismay.

People do you hear what I say,

A cure for  all the illnesses today.
