We Need More Love

We need more love and understanding and love of our god within Than love of this invisible god who stirs the wrath in men So much suspicion and mistrust and so much hatred has grown Between people over this god we have never met or known. Why because of god people feel such hatred that leads to disharmony Is something that to understand seems far too big for me Perhaps their gods if they exist are looking on in shame At their so called devotees who wage war in their name. By trying to destroy Mother Earth our own selves we destroy And when men who wage war for god dropp their bombs of poison from the sky They give rise to widespread suffering and famine and disease And death through radiation is blowing in the breeze. Man's inhumanity to man one might say World-wide And far too many beautiful Countries by bombs have been destroyed And wars and rumours of more wars give rise to more unease And millions of once happy people have become refugees. That men wage war in the name of god seems puzzling to me But more love and understanding would lead to harmony And I can only live in hope that I will live to see A World that's free of war and suffering and man's inhumanity.
