We must walk it
Live it
Feel it
Try to swallow pain
Feel love
When it touches
Grasp changes
Pray for others
Deal the best we can
In a world that
Is ever-changing
Oh how I wish
Sometimes I
Could go back
To a more simple
Time when my
Parents were here
Struggles yes
But not like today
Food on the table
No tears falling
From little children
Crying from hunger
Oh God my precious Lord
Help us sinners
Here on earth
Let us all come
To you on
Bended knees
And pray
Take us out
Of this turmoil
Lift us into
Your arms Lord
Save our souls
As you promised
Lord, I am ready.

a much more simple life. I am not even talking about poverty etc. I am talking about having the comfort of going to someone you could speak to without fear
