God, we have made a mess of this world
By not listening to the cries of one another
By saying our way is the only way
When there are so many others to consider
Help us to hear their cries, to not ignore
The needs of those being broken, of those
Who are having violence perpetrated on them
Help us to care for one another, to realize
When we begin to just see on another as the
Enemy we loose sight of our shared human
Family, we loose sight we are one with another
Interdependent parts of a body and when we
Say one is not a part we have cut off our own
Arm, leg, hand, feet, and soul because we
Clothe ourselves in our own righteousness
And forget no one is that good, only you are
By not listening to the cries of one another
By saying our way is the only way
When there are so many others to consider
Help us to hear their cries, to not ignore
The needs of those being broken, of those
Who are having violence perpetrated on them
Help us to care for one another, to realize
When we begin to just see on another as the
Enemy we loose sight of our shared human
Family, we loose sight we are one with another
Interdependent parts of a body and when we
Say one is not a part we have cut off our own
Arm, leg, hand, feet, and soul because we
Clothe ourselves in our own righteousness
And forget no one is that good, only you are
