When You Open Your Soul

Pull back from your four walls Take a look at the world All violence soon pawls As man’s plans are unfurled Vow your heart to expand Beyond your selfish needs Learn to reach out a hand Full of love and good deeds. It only takes one of us To make one gesture a day It’s so easy, no fuss To show others the way Altho you’re not wealthy You can still make a change Helping others, the key As on your path you range When you open your soul Show the world that you care When compassion’s your goal You’ll find God is in there Keeping Him at your core And His mandates are done HE will ask nothing more And our world will be one.
