In this day and age, where most we ever hear about is war and killing and hatred, I thought this fitting.
We all have one life to live – why do we spend it in sadness? Hopefully soon light will dawn and we will all start leading better lives.
Out of the darkness,comes the light –
As night gives way to morn;
And though our lives be fraught with strife
A brighter day will dawn.
Freedom from the chains of Hate –
The seeds of whom we sow;
And we shall break through all the walls,
And learn to love once more.
Destiny may hunt us down,
Show us a future bleak;
And yet we’ll face the prophecy
And peace within us seek.
A friend will help another,
And war will be destroyed,
A loving hand will reach out,
And be a better guide.
A smile that will be given
To melt the tears away.
And everyone will always have
A kindly word to say.
Life will be rewarding,
Love will be around,
Pain will slowly fade away,
Happiness abound.
Each day will dawn a joyous morn
That everyone looks to
Everyone will give their best
And each one get his due.
The lines dividing rich and poor –
Will slowly disappear.
There will be no more reason
To live in constant fear –
The fear of another
More powerful than you,
Who’ll take all that you have to give
And wreck all that you do.
After each night of darkness
Will come the light of morn –
And every day in every way
Man will be reborn.
