Easy Living
Michael O'Faolain

If this great earth was born to sing
A universal note would be a simple thing
The word of love would fit this air
And peace would echo far and near.

For the moon and stars would play their part
To guide God’s love to the corner dark
That love and light a potent team
To all who need to achieve life's dream.

The sun by day and the moon by night
And they sometimes out of sight
Like troubles, the clouds will pass
And our world seems brighter from the past.

But love and peace having found its way
Will grow within and blossom each day
And its seed will find a hollow place
To root more love at a struggling pace.

For love is life and life is being
Yesterday is history and tomorrow a dream
This moment in time, is when we are ripe
To be aware of the now, is the gem of our life.

So people on earth play a vital role
To carry this message is an easy enough goal
As the earth spins around to carry our song
We say but the word and it echoes along.
