Description
I began with a couple of chords intending to write a kind of love song, but as I wrote the words'Somethings going on.... ' I added 'in the world' and it sort of changed direction and out came my very smallest soap box again( Must have something nagging me LOL). I promise you I'm not a fanatic LOL

Lyrics
What is going on in the world? People warring,
Something's going on in the world, nerves are Jarring,
People try to live their lives, striving for happiness,
Try to make their dreams come true, but something's gone amiss.
People say God's on their side, so why the killing?
If God is really on their side, why are they so willing,
To take away what God has made and fill the world with hate?
Can't they come together, or is it too late?
Is this what God really wants, people at war?
If this is what their God really wants, then I don't want to know.
Something's changing in the world, Evil's thriving,
Someone's tryin' to brainwash the world, but I'm not buyin'
That a God with so much love, would destroy what's good.
He wouldn't want the people of the world, to spill their blood.
Send out Love to the world. people need it,
Show them all we care for the world and make them heed it.
Maybe peace will come to the world. C'mon let's all sow it.
Look what we've done to the world and think what we owe it.
Look round at the wonders of the world and all the beauty,
Flowing rivers and forests of the world; don't you think it's our duty,
To protect and love it all; best of all to share it,
To be proud of all we see... and it was for free?
I'm thankful that I'm in the world and that I love it
And when it's time for me to leave the world and I'm looking from above it,
I will say with all my heart, "This was my home and the place that I shared with Love, for everyone".
The place that I shared with love, for everyone.
Something's going on in the world, nerves are Jarring,
People try to live their lives, striving for happiness,
Try to make their dreams come true, but something's gone amiss.
People say God's on their side, so why the killing?
If God is really on their side, why are they so willing,
To take away what God has made and fill the world with hate?
Can't they come together, or is it too late?
Is this what God really wants, people at war?
If this is what their God really wants, then I don't want to know.
Something's changing in the world, Evil's thriving,
Someone's tryin' to brainwash the world, but I'm not buyin'
That a God with so much love, would destroy what's good.
He wouldn't want the people of the world, to spill their blood.
Send out Love to the world. people need it,
Show them all we care for the world and make them heed it.
Maybe peace will come to the world. C'mon let's all sow it.
Look what we've done to the world and think what we owe it.
Look round at the wonders of the world and all the beauty,
Flowing rivers and forests of the world; don't you think it's our duty,
To protect and love it all; best of all to share it,
To be proud of all we see... and it was for free?
I'm thankful that I'm in the world and that I love it
And when it's time for me to leave the world and I'm looking from above it,
I will say with all my heart, "This was my home and the place that I shared with Love, for everyone".
The place that I shared with love, for everyone.
Feter
the voice of protest music from the 60s
just all what came to my mind and how this
is what most respectfull for a musician can bring
"People say God's on their side, so why the killing?
If God is really on their side, why are they so willing,
To take away what God has made and fill the world with hate?
Can't they come together, or is it too late?"
you sum it all here ...this is a classic !!!!
thank you for such a gem !!
