There Was a Crooked Man

There was a Crooked Man

There was a Crooked Man
in His Heart He had hate
in His Mind He had no Plan
On care for a better World

Others Who also Hated loved Him
He held up a Cross to Them
He didn't even know what it should mean
And now We must be for Right

It is on Us now to set this right
Be awakened to end this Fright
This is not the 1940s
Unless We want to repeat History

Stand up for Humanity of all
No Man should be Lesser
I want all to be loved
Hate has no Place in Love
