THE BRUTALITY OF MAN

sometimes the brutality of man:
it is so hard to understand:

how anyone could be so brutal and mean:
is worse than a bad dream:

how could you just fire a deadly rocket in the sky:
knowing where it lands, innocent people will die:

what gives any man the right to kill another:
god wants peace, and for us to love thy neighbor as thy brother:

the brutality of man in history we know:
germany how they acted so low

the killing in africa is a shame:
in life on earth, god loves us all the same:

no man is any better than another:
in life, love thy neighbor as thy brother:

the brutality of man is insane:
how one can inflict on another such pain:

in life you will reap what you sew:
so be careful what you grow

what you dish out you shall recieve:
if you give brutality,one day soon you too will grieve:

it is a vicious cycle of hate and war:
violence begets violence more:

the brutality of man, so hard to understand:
how death can be dealt from a hand:

god wants man to show,compassion,love and forgiveness:
in gods eyes all men are equal not less:

for those giving brutality and pain:
they will be reconned the same:

in life love thy neighbor as thy brother:
for all of your life, honor thy father and mother:

gods only law is love:
'keep hope, faith and love,honor god our father in heaven above:
