Poverty Exists

Poverty exists because of you and me If only from God's eyes we could see, From God's eyes he even sheds a tear From the starving people that are here. Yes! God could feed the poor and the hungry In every state and also in every country, But, God gave man his own free will So, he could help his starving brothers with a meal. He hath filled the hungry with good things And unto them the Angels watches and sings, And then when comes the poor man's day The rich he hath sent empty and away. We have people who are starving We have people who upon a steak who are carving, And those two people are both brothers But, with different fathers and mothers. It's not because we cannot feed the poor Or because they need or want more, It's all because of an uncaring and unfathomable itch It's because, we cannot satisfy the rich. Randy L. McClave
