Today
Listen, listen to the voices that call...
Let them be heard, let them be heard.
Fear and oppression, pain, and sorrow.
See the pain, hear the pain, feel the pain.
Open your eyes, open your ears, shut your mouths
and be still! Do you see what I see? Do you
hear what I hear? Do you feel what I feel?
Hurt and lonely children, hungry parents starring
into the unknown. When will it stop? When will help come?
Who will be brave to speak and too care? Stop the fighting!
Stop the blaming! It's time to walk side by side, hand in hand
and know that we were all created by the same wonderful man.
Stop the pain, stop the sorrow! Give a hug, a prayer, and a little
love for a better tomorrow!
