I once spent a year in Philadelphia, I think it was on a Sunday

FLY TO THE MOON

If We Can Fly to The Moon

will we find the eyes that see
inside all human tragedy
will our minds learn how to hold
the sights and sounds that take control
will we find the answers near the reasons
and the ways to cope
will we find the steps to walk
toward a path of hope will we join our praying hands
still struggling to understand
will our minds create a place
that celebrates the human race
will we lift our voices clear
transcending all our deepest fears
will we move beyond them all
to live our visions here
will we find our innocence
inside the pain of past events
will our minds learn how to solve
the problems as our world evolves
will we find the beauty of
the rising and the setting sun
will we count our blessings for
this new life just begun if we can fly to the moon
if we can cry when life is cruel
if we can carry, carry on
then every light will survive
and every heart will soar and rise
upon the future
of all that we love
