So, What is Required?
Political divide, the new spiritual standard
Churches split, yet it’s God who is slandered
Philosophies built on Fox, CNN and Dr. Phil
Focused on fear, naivety kills
The shirt I wear, a kid made far away
The rich get richer, while he barely gets paid
My culture loves when I keep and spend it
My Father loves when I invest and share it
Girls exploited, objects of pleasure
Used as property, yet made as God’s treasure
Seen as the least, yet so much potential
Educate, liberate, makes the world more powerful
No longer Jew, foreigner, slave, owner
You’ve never looked in the eyes Jesus didn’t die for
We have the answers if we keep on giving
Your place on the map should not determine your living
Life’s mixed with blessings, struggles and pain
Important to laugh, cry, helping those through the rain
The only thing certain, is that nothing is certain
Except for eternity, the other side of the curtain
Today is a gift, tomorrow not guaranteed
Love overcomes evil, captives are freed
So what is required that heaven applauds
To act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with God
