Something’s destroying our world
And ‘tis fed by reasons manifold – –  
Greed, lust for power, vanity and fear
All causing a global social cancer.

They’re evil and fuel each other
Yes, this greed, lust for power, vanity and fear
Add extreme patriotism and religious fanaticism 
And ours is a world divided with deeper chasm.

But this world is not only for the few
Not only for the moneyed, nor for the mighty crew
‘Tis also for the ordinary, for me and you
That’s God’s desire, and I believe it to be true.

We’re all an integral, essential part of the whole
We’re all part of the world’s human puzzle
The world’s not complete without you and me
All of us, we’re meant to be here and to be free.

Thus, we all have equal right and claim
To all nature’s blessings and beauty stream
To all life’s essentials including prosperity 
that come and evolve from the universe’s bounty.

We’re all an equal part of one human family
Buddhists, Christians, Jews, Muslims, the spirit-free
And all those who believe otherwise in good 
Brethren we all are, in need of love and a hood.

So share kindness and love
Spread the sunshine above
Let’s open and grow our hearts
And live as one family of many parts. 

For those who have but a few years in sight
T’is not too late to pursue the light
Though older, we’ve yet much to offer 
Though weaker, we yet can see much better.
