We write what’s inside, it comes out in our life
Regardless of heartaches from troubles and strife.
We all have a song that we sing with our soul.
The verses we learn as the years take a toll.
I pray that the lines you recite in your head,
Bring hope to the children with wisdom you spread,
In this world full of turmoil, confusion and hate,
I pray for new voices before it’s too late.
May history give us the insight we need
To not spiral downward in word and in deed.
I pray for a change, for a breath of fresh air.
May the children find hope and not sink in despair.
May the next generation discern wrong from right,
Rebel against darkness, be drawn to the light.
Instill a new song in our youth that brings joy.
May Your love fill the heart of each girl and each boy.
