The world is such a mess
All places in distress
From climate change and more
From drought to rain galore

From threats of war and strife
From terror taking life
From cheating in the schools
From others breaking rules

From prisons bursting seams
From childhood broken dreams
From Pastors get rich schemes
From wealth by any means

And yet we carry on
From night to breaking dawn
From hurt forgiving grace
From mine to evry race

From greed to genrous gift
From fallen may we lift
From random hate to bless
From pain to happiness

By faith we can survive
And thereby come to thrive
Despite the troubled land
Find love is near at hand

With Jesus let us pray
That we may find a way
To be the change we seek
As we turn the other cheek
