The days unfold their offerings with promise unsurpassed —
through those we choose will love and life be starlets of the cast?
What obstacles we give ourselves through power, wealth and land,
they’ve proved themselves false idols – yet they take the upper hand.
Can we overcome our half-thought aims and see with head and heart
a vision that will lead us on so each can take our part
in making every life and home secure with love steadfast?

For all the ones who live in pain and suffer hell-on-earth,
bless them Lord to know your love and feel a fresh rebirth.
