what’s wrong with the earth

what’s wrong with the earth

What’s wrong with the earth - 
It’s people are praying for redemption 
The Buddhists are chanting Om
Children are running wild 
Christians are kneeling 
Birds are flying 
Jews are facing east towards Jerusalem 
The Muslims are holding on to the Koran
The cows are roaming free
As the Hindus bathe in the Ganges 
We ask our Lord 
What’s wrong with the earth 
The sun is setting in sorrow 
For the moon dipping into night 
Rain falls, man kills, blood drips
What’s wrong with the earth 
It’s peoples are tired of life 
Suiciding into the crust 
Like a dog chasing it’s own tail 
Lord of the universe 
God of patience - I see 
Life is waiting, 
What’s wrong with the earth?
