Is it any wonder
That the world is filled with pain,
When man sets aside its beauty,
For his own material gain?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder
That lovers' hearts grow dim,
When they do not hold in honour,
The love that's found within?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder
That the homeless often fail,
When they're forced out of house and home
To seek another trail?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder That nature falls to ruin and rubble, Because we drain it
thoughtlessly, Allowing it to crumble?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder That children go astray, Because we did not take the time,
To show them the proper way?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder That evil's strong and bold, When we can't see any goodness,
And we let our hearts grow cold?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder Racism thrives, my friend, When we cannot see the person,
Just the colour of his skin?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder That friendships die and fade, When we forget the reasons,
Why they first were made?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder Our world has been polluted, When we allow our industries,
To strip it and permute it?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder There's so much grief and sorrow, That we don't even seem to care,
What will take place tomorrow?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder
We see no value in our brothers, And we hold ourselves too far above,
The many needs of others?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder Our world is like it
is, When all we do is grumble, And no action do we give?
![](https://www.angelfire.com/nj2/rose36/jchead.jpg) Is it any wonder We wait in fear of Judgement Day, When we do the things we do, Then forget the way to pray?
