My heart is singing a silent broken song,
how did everything ever go so wrong?
Did peace really leave us all alone?
When did mankind become so bad to the bone?
The great instruction was to go and be fruitful,
not to kill, to rape, to destroy, to be hateful.
We are no longer a beautiful sight from above,
and have destroyed through selfishness, our love.
Can one sparrow make a summer, a difference?
We urgently need some form of deliverance.
If we can stand together, take hands and pray,
I know that God will be able to have His way.
I want to rise up from my own ashes of pain,
please allow me, my boldness, to regain.
I want to claim back all that once was spoken,
and try to heal that which are scattered, lost, broken!
If I then be the first one to take a stand,
reach out to you a helpful and willing hand.
Would you welcome my effort, how small it may be?
If I can, and I will, let peace begin with me!
