Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and me, and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and me
Today, inordinate desire for wealth, greed, selfishness, discrimination, etc has made the world a living hell for many people. The rich see the poor as people to be trodden on, and the little things which are due to the poor are being used to enrich themselves more. In the different work environments, the employees are subjected to hard labor with little pay. Everyone wants to fill his pocket first, caring less about the impact of their actions on those around them.
Everyone thinks of himself and his today. There is no plan for tomorrow and the well-being of the unborn.
Sadly, we do not need much to make the world a better place, we only need love and every other thing we flow along.
- Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing.*
It is lack of love that makes one desire what belongs to another. If there is love, brothers will not fight each other, nations wouldn't want to overthrow each other nor seek to control one another. Every action will be evaluated before application and selfishness won't be seen around.
And the dream we were conceived in Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling the life
Wound this earth, crucify its soul?
Though it's plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be god's glow
We all want to have a peaceful world, and this is something that can be easily achieved once we can allow love to rule,
We are the reason why there is war and hardship in the world, and we are also the solution to it as well. We want those in authority to change the world but we fail in the little things trusted to us. We fail our children as fathers, we fail the society as its members. We need to join forces together, think of the future unborn, and understand that what we do today will either create a good environment for the unborn or put them in a world where they will wish that they were never born.
Most times when I am saddened by what I see in the world, I am moved to listen to this song. If you have the song on your phone, consider playing it today and meditating on the words.
Before I end, I wish to share something that I have observed in the music industry. Music is mainly for entertainment but when you compare the music we see today with what was around some century back, you will agree with me that there are usually messages to take away from music in the past. Today, we see more of beats and some jam-packed wordings with immoral scenes.
I hope that every music in addition to entertaining people through its beats, should have a message for the listener.
The full lyrics for Heal the World by Micheal Jackson
"Heal The World"
(Think about—am—the generations and they say we wanna make it a better place for our children, and our children's children, so that they know it's a better world for them, and think they can make it a better place)
There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much brighter than tomorrow
And if you really try
You'll fin,d there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel there's no hurt or sorrow
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space
Make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
So make a better world
Make a better world
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me
And the dream we were conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in the grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify its soul
Though it's plain to see
This world is heavenly
Be God's glow
We could fly so high
, Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel you are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space
To make a better place
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me
And the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place
For you and for me.
