Strange enough to imagine,
A life that's simple and plain.
Where people greeted each other
And knew everybody's name.
Our land is so divided
So broken at the heart
Those who used to call it home
No longer want to be a part.
Racism is running rampant,
Degradation is on the rise.
Crime is the new normal,
And there is haunting in our eyes.
If we could love like Jesus,
Anyone, anywhere,
This nation would come together
And all would learn to care
With the compassion in our hearts,
And with love in our souls.
Let us, with God, take this nation
Where it needs to go.
