-- Mohandas K. Gandhi |
Yearning for JusticeGive me a yearning for justiceAnd a cry for a broken heart I am only one and I can't change the world, but Here, in me the change should start Give me a yearning for justice And a prayer for the gift of tears 'Cause I see a million starving In my living room, while My eyes are dry My conscience clear... From my sheltered life I Hear of children crying while Families walk the streets For some shelter they'll hope While in my shelter I know I'll be fast asleep Give me a yearning for justice Just the ability to feel 'Cause I've never known a day Of cold or hunger pain, please Help me know the need is real Give me a yearning for justice And a cry for a broken heart I am only one and I can't change the world, but Here, in me the change should start... |

Meanwhile, consider it a museum piece from the early web). :)
