THE TRUTH OF THE WORLD


lost in a world so full of darkness

hoping that the sun will shine again

for this world has been corrupt with wickedness

only a few show the good now and then

too many people lie, cheat, and steal

be the light in the darkness 

show the wicked how being good could feel

prove to them that being evil is having less

you are the last hope in fixing those who are broken 

i know you see the good in people

silence the evil and say the unspoken 

i have all the faith in you so go and pray up in the steeple
