What is it that would make the world
A better place to be
To me the lack of ignorance
Is what we need to see
We all believe that we are right
That others must be wrong
Why can we not leave them alone
To be where they belong
Christian, Muslim, Sikh, or what
They all present the same
Belief in an almighty
Just by any other name
Live and let live is the key
To what we need on earth
To lead to tranquil harmony
That’s worthy of mans birth
