For Our World

We need to stop, just stop

Stop for a moment

Before anybody says or does anything

That may hurt anyone else



We need to be silents, just silent

Silent for a moment

Before we forever lose the blessing of songs

That grow in our hearts



We need to notice, just notice

Notice for a moment

Before the future slips away

into ashes and dust of humility



Stop, be silent, and notice

In so many ways, we are the same

Our differences are unique

treasures



We have, we are, a mosaic of gifts

To nurture, to offer, to accept

We need to be, just be

Be for a moment



Kind and gentle, innocent and trusting

Like children and lambs

Never judging or vengeful

Like the judging and vengeful



And now, let us pray

Differently, yet together

Before there is no earth, no life

No chance for peace

Peace for our world... our world.
