When I was young and in my teens
I never owned a pair of jeans
At school we learned to sew and cook,
Spend time with God and His good book.
There was world war, we did our part
And prayed that soon our lives would start
We volunteered for U S O
And questioned where our youth should go !
Cold war, Korea, Vietnam
Ungodly wars since it began
Please pray on this, what shall we do
When will its ugliness be through ?
