cyrus was born today
I am an uncle
times 2
The day
at alebdong was amazing
The kids
painted things that were full of angst and beauty
We have made a promise
just by coming
a promise by bringing gifts
given
them joy and their hearts
so wide and bursting
There is no way I can turn
back
I have asked god
in times of desperation
to be a light
and inspiration
My prayers
have
been answered
I have to
be more
than I was
Or in truth
I have to be all
that I am
I want
to be absolved
I want
to be redeemed
and start new
with the spirit inside behind over and under me
Please hear us
Please answer us
The way you have answered us here and now
I love you
your people
Who suffer
in ways most of us could never imagine
They are looking at us to fulfill a promise of the hope that outside
eyes and
ears who respect their humanity undoubtly bring
I am asked
when will we return?
The elders in the camp have praised us
The children love us
the leaders know
that if our heart is right
so much can be done
I ask you to join us
And bring these people
basic necessities to live their life
worthy of all
humanity
these people are our
heart and soul
our soul will burn with theirs
I have looked into the eyes of our brothers and sisters
Their skin is broken
open from disease
They don¹t have
clean water
They don¹t have
real food
they are
giant souls
They are
your children
They are
your parents
they are
your grandparents
they need
you to help them
live in a way fitting
to be called human
make no mistake about it
in ways
they are much happier than you and I
could ever be
their sense of community
is something
i've never seen touched in America
but they need basics
and it is our responsibility
as humans
to provide this for them
they have been devastated
by civil war that is almost twenty years old
many most have lost everything
families wealth property
they are a proud people
and as for the job of living
we could learn much
from them
they are beautiful
talented
joyful and proud human beings
of the highest order
it is our continued shame
and damnation
if we do not do
everything in our power
to deal
with their needs
at once
we cant live in peace until we know
our family is being taken care of
Your mother
Your father
Your brother
Your sister
And your children
Are sick and starving
Give everything you have
To change this horrible circumstance
There is nothing else that we can do
We are human beings
We are given a light
We are given a light
I sang with a kid today
He wrote the lyrics
They went like this
Jesus is my savior
Tell the devil
I am the winner
I wondered when he sang that
If I could ever tell the devil that I am the winner
Until they¹re living in a situation which they deem decent
Please turn the direction around
it is not impossible for us to change
It starts with a seed
It starts with one village
it starts with one person
It starts with you
There is something definite that can be done
And you can do it
You can change the course of everything
God has given you a heart
Which is everything
You are all people
You are this world
You have a gift
Please share it
With me
With them
Please believe
You are powerful
You are the very light
By which all creation has spun
You are in fact
The ultimate
Don¹t deny this any longer
Not for them
But for yourself
There is still time
To be saved
There is still time
To save
Believe
And believe
And believe
I need you
They need you
You need you
To wake up
And give everything you have
or give all you can spare
There is no other choice
There is no other conclusion
How could there be?
Your family is starving
They are sick and dying
When you give yourself
To the spirit of generosity
the joy is overwhelming
Help us survive
Help us live in dignity
Help us be a joyful people
Proud of what we are
Proud of what we represent
In the eyes of god
And in our own eyes
Help us
Be what we are
A glorious species
That has not suicided a life that is a gift so precious
It is impossible to earn
This gift we have
It is ours
To surprise
Even the one
Who gave it to us
He is waiting
For us to act
As he would
Have us act
I love you
From the bottom of my heart
I love you
