|
This is an emergency |
|
The state of our society |
|
So much hatred, so much pride |
|
Truth and justice set aside |
|
Chorus: |
|
The answer: there is a better way |
|
An open door that leads to peace, joy, and love (peace, joy, and love) |
|
The solution: there is a brighter day |
|
A new beginning, a gift from above (gift from above) |
|
Spread the word with fervency |
|
To family and community |
|
To prejudiced and poisoned minds |
|
Shout the message far and wide |
|
Repeat Chorus |
|
(I'm talking 'bout) Jesus showing the path for our unity |
|
Jesus giving the truth for society |
|
Jesus teaching us strength through humility |
|
Jesus, my Jesus, the brighter day |
|
No excuse, no circumstance |
|
The people need a second chance |
|
They've got to see, they've got to know |
|
You and I we've got to go |
|
Repeat Chorus |
|
