This world today is upside down
As chaos roams from town to town
All citizens may suffer so
The enemy will not let go.
How sad if we should lose control
Of all our dreams and of each goal
We’ve come too far to just give up
And swallow lies from Satan’s cup.
Where is the truth that must be told
This hatred now has grown too old
We’re all so tired of the strife
God help us to regain our life !
Now I have seen the mighty mountain and heard the restless sea
There is no greater image that my old heart may bring to me
For I am not a stranger adrift upon some foreign shore
But a native born who sees trouble that’s coming soon and more.
I pray that we acknowledge that our future holds great danger
We forgot how times are changed ere we welcomed in the stranger
And so it is that now we are prepared as we must need be
To keep our homeland safe and from all its enemies be free !
How does a child observe a war
And query what they’re fighting for
It can’t be love no matter what
For in a war love’s been forgot !
It isn’t peace, that’s most absurd
As here hate is the final word
And kindness cannot help a bit
In chaos it will never fit !
How sad there’s no path left to try
To help explain or justify
Why men must ever vengeful be
Using God’s cause to kill with glee !
The darkest days that will obscure
Those times in life we feel secure,
And overshadow happiness
To leave in place some deep distress
While never understanding why
Some choose these passions to apply !
Tis sad to know this can be true
And comes between both me and you
To leave behind a tragic rift
That is to none a helpful gift,
But rather claims unhealthy cause
Engendering eternal wars !
