Notes About The Poem

The Whole World In His Band

The Whole World In His Band
God wants the whole world in His band Brothers and sisters of the land Followers singing His commands Connecting through heaven’s broadband. Sing in praise all ye that do stand On the Lord’s glorious bandstand Sing how it is, holding God's hand Lord and conductor of the band. Children come along, clap your hands To beat of drums and baby grands With skips and hops dance to the band For God so loves His precious lambs. All Birds and creatures of the land Join with us too, it's your homeland Sea creatures from depths of sea-land Swell the choirs of the Lord’s mainland. The Lord takes hold of one's right hand He's the saviour of those hearts fanned By faithful members of the band That lead us to the promised land. Altogether now hand in hand God wants the whole world in His band.

Gee, this should be the International Anthem. It would be too, except you'd no doubt have to replace 'God' with something less worthy. Oh, well. I love it, anyway, and it's a FAVE for me. Thanks, Belle.
