The World Is Shouting

The world is shouting non stop Voices from deep in the wilderness, And voices from valleys above the mountains Shouting for prayers to be heard And for lives to be dignified once more The world is shouting without pause Parents shouting with broken hearts Children shouting with sad tones Calling names in their shattered dreams For love to enter field of play And for justice to reappear in their lives Neighbours are shouting in their broken homes Hullabaloo in the middle of the night Communities longing for hopeful times Shouting in their quest to overcome obstacles, Shutting every door to their emancipation Every creature is shouting for goodness sake, Craving for joyous celebrations Shouting for respect in their valleys Crying for peace in their backyards Pleading their case on the face of the earth Shouting with dignity for heaven to listen
