what would you have us do
I asked Mother Mary today
is there some answers that we
in good faith can receive
for the world is so torn
by this war that is born
of hatred and violence
that is such a dark energy
and we all feel the need
for the human race
to find a way to find a way
to overcome these killings each day
so I ask the question to you
what would you have us do lord
to stop the suffering and be renewed
by the power of hope and love that's true
what would you have us do
when we hear the news
and we see the tears that fall
and the meaningless way that terrorism calls
and this war that we now face
attacks innocent victims of the human race
and the churches, clubs and schools
have become an easy target for those few
who would use their insane hatred
to show the world they want to make
us all pay for their weakness and their ways
that sacrifice innocent lives each day
and heard a soft whisper inside
that told me all we can do
is live with more kindness and truth
and we must remember to see
that good overcomes the bad eventually
their are so many who are praying
millions who are seeking
to do more good each day
and remember love will always overcome hate
each person can only do the best they can
and together this force for good
will overcome the negative beings who would
try to bring the world down to its knees
yes there is such a need right now
this will unite us to find out how
we can find the time to pray
and live with a little more love each day
for each candle light that Shines
helps remove the darkness in human kind
and if we can each have hope and believe
good will win eventually
for love always overcomes hate
and the kindness we practice conveys
the best path to a higher way
to help bring this world to peace one day
