From Bad to Worse

It just goes from bad to worse,
Everything seems to fall apart;
As if this world had a curse,
No one any longer has a heart.

We go through life in haste,
No longer having any time;
Instead of reusing we waste,
Such abuse ought to be a crime.

We cry out for peace, peace,
But yet still seems to be none;
Wondering if war will cease,
No change after talk is done.

With this world such a mess,
Do you think it delights God?
Shining His favor upon to bless,
On the humans that are flawed.

But God so loved the earth,
That He gave His only Son;
Whoever believes has rebirth,
Of everlasting life be as one.
