"We Won't Ever See That Day"
The "big men dream of possessing untold power.
These same big men, have they ever admired a flower?
They all sit back in their soft cushioned chairs and sniff up
the office
Smoke from the eioar-filUH air
?- WQ*** vv? Mil
But we, the little people, will never, ever know when the day
will finally
Come, when this world will be no more.
If by chance they push a button, the human race will then
be nothing.
For mankind I dearly pray, we won't ever see that day.
Just a threat of a nuclear war makes me tremble
even more.
World War Three is a tragedy for all of us who long
for peace.
Generations we'll never, ever see.
Unborn children will never, ever be.
Songs the birds won't ever sing again.
Neighbors will never walk hand in hand.
It is so hard to lay down arms.
It is so easy to drop the bomb.
Why can't they see before it's too late.
For mankind I pray, we won't ever see that day.
To wake each day in appreciation, this land so free,
-! a proud nation,
Where we can go where we choose to go, and we can speak
if we choose to know.
Tell me, big men, can we be friends?
Must all these things be gone, our home sweet home?
Why must we plead for humanity, when we should strive
tor harmony,
So this catastrophe won't take us away.
For mankind I pray, WE WON'T SEE THAT DAY.
Collins Graham
"A Magic Love Potion"
I took a magic love potion,
Threw it into the Atlantic Ocean
And swiftly took you for a ride.
You
s .. ,..Jf diwwiwd'a'l wiwiwiwMk.. Then,
I love you, I love you, you cried.

"Renew This Spirit Within Me9'
Today, I got really angry, Lord.
To imitate your Son is very hard.
Oh, if I could be as good as He,
How happy I would always be.
To turn a frown into a smile,
To be able to go that extra mile.
But we as humans are imperfect, I know.
That's why it hurts and tears me so.
To know I am not what 1 should be:
Caring, loving and forgiving as He.
I know that he died for my sins,
But yet there remains something within
That brings out all the guilt and shame
When I think of how He came
To die on Calvary because you-loved us so
That we may have salvation ? that we may know.
For peace on Earth, good will toward men.
His blood shall wash away our sin.
And then when I can say a prayer,
I know that this life is not fore'er..
And I can start all o'er again
Because through prayer I know I can
Receive amazing grace from thee.
And Thou will wipe the tears from me
And change my anger into joy
And wipe away all the ploy.
For this I am so grateful, God,
For no matter how strange or odd
You're always by my side, I know,
Because your Son, Jesus, told me so.
