Hate is the greatest form of terror.
Our world is rocked, who do we blame?
Perhaps, we should all, hang our heads in shame.
If you have ever harbored hate in your heart,
know now, that is where the problems start.

We are looking at each other in a different light.
So many factors shade our sight.
Try my friend to look through God's eyes,
listen to His voice, there you will find no lies.

Signs everywhere ask God, " Our country to bless",
What about all the rest?
This is not about "US", how big, rich, or strong.
It is about our world and how we all are wrong!

Innocence lost, precious blood shed.
Now, more hatred and violence begins to spread.
When will we learn there is one Earth, one God, one Son,
Still far too many ticking bombs or a smoking gun.

God bless us one and all!
In all parts of the world, especially the weak and the small.
Let these acts of terror and horror,
bring wisdom and strength amidst our sorrow.

I pray not for one country or one race.
I pray we all come to know God's mercy and grace.
