Your Brother's Keeper

A new way of life, is beginning to unfold.
Beware of what you hear, and what you're told.
There is one speaking, his message we need to hear.
With our technology and power, we still need to use our ears.

We are not invincible, we are not above God.
One little microbe, has come both here and abroad.
Our way of life, has been brought to its knees.
Life is fragile, this is not a tease.

Love one another, don't let things get out of hand.
Be vigilant and stand tall, together we need to stand.
Watch over your tired and weak.
You are now your brother's keeper, listen and hear him speak.
