<BGSOUND SRC="bcsfy.mid" LOOP=TRUE>

Bewildered trying to fathom men killing women and
children by the thousands, have they no souls no remorse
Hard to imagine such hatred and fury, what causes them
to commit such butchery
The earth slowly being ruined, still mankind fails to
heed the warning signals
What has to occur before we begin to see what we are
doing to ourselves and the life around us
The whole of humanity is an insane beast, only showing
brief glimpses of clear thought
The best of us who try to make a difference are
exterminated, mysteriously they vanish
The good is weeded out and done away with while the
greed filled continue to dominate
Children starving despite a surplus of sustenance, the
wealthy doing very little, blinded by selfishness
Caring more for their pet animals, they ignore the
plight of so many innocent victims
Men and women labour to escape poverty while the well to
do look for new ways to exploit them
About all of the pain and suffering, we as individuals,
can do little, we can only look to ourselves
Our heartache will not ease the anguish of those less
fortunate than us
We can only become aware and pray that others do
likewise, we control only ourselves, that in itself an
arduous task
Have faith in God, give in to the fact that it is all
part of His plan, we need not understand His design
We may only accept His will for us, so we may grow
closer to His light
Do what we know in our hearts is fitting, for that is
how He conveys His intention for us
Heed not the images of the mind that try to bend and
twist the spirit
Such influence only brings us to the level of the
oppressive, or to that of the slayers of children
Let God do His will and accept from Him our
responsibilities so we may help bring about His design
If there is something for us to do to help ease the
torment of others, He will let it be known to us
When his message is gone unheeded, an opportunity for us
to be of service to those who need us is missed
For He is the way, and through His loving embrace only,
can we be saved from ourselves
