A Terrible Mess

Here’s something I hate to confess.
It’s causing a lot of distress.
With prejudice, bigotry and hate everywhere
our world’s in an terrible mess!

To remedy all this dismay
we need to...we must...find a way
to look in our hearts, cast off our hate
and bring love back...a little each day.

It may seem like an impossible quest
but we can do it!
This I attest.
Now is the time...when the world’s at its worst...
for we the people to be at our best!

I have faith in us! 
And so I contend
all this hatred...
our world will transcend.
I know when we learn to embrace one another...
love will win out in the end!
