In tears that flow worldwide From the abuses of others Let us pray In those that seek power In order to impose their will Let us bow our heads For those people Whose faith follows blindly Let us open our eyes In all those religions Whose zealots ferment hate Let our words silence them For those that see color On faces of humanity Let us become rainbow children For those that love to hate Seeing red in fashion Let our hearts bleed In the spirited minds of good will Let our hands form the human bonding In which our fingers can take hold Let the peace and tranquility Of a mass of changing opinions Who see war as a last resort Stand firm against those Who see it as a weakness So as I say Our father who art in heaven Hallowed be thy name Be blessed to continue In the special religion That lies within your heart Capturing the essence Of a world prayer In which the words Will respect everyone’s right To exist in harmony In the music of the heavens Let us all do away with The means of mass destruction By the most peaceful means Of self preservation Of all the world’s species Thought: Like most men, I am selfish in that I wish my words will reflect into them bringing peace and tranquility; therefore it would be a miracle to do it worldwide.
