WHEN LOVE IS FORGOTTEN

What has happened to the family
where sanity once reigned,
where we could talk about our differences
without hurtful words and pain.

Why do we have to scream and shout
I can’t stand it anymore,
it’s affected our health, I fear that our love
will be lost in the scuffle for sure.

Put ourselves into someone else’s shoes
and walk in them for a time,
we’d soon understand why they do what they do
they hurt just as we do you’ll find.

Lord help us untangle the mess of our lives
bring peace to the hearts of all men,
the hour is late and we cry for Your aid
please answer our prayer Lord, amen.
