Today's Life is Death

Earth cracks; Ground is breaking

Oceans roar; Land is shaking

Children scream; Heart are crying

Earth splits; Lives are dying

Houses fall; People running

Despair roams; Bodies rushing


Australia bound; Boats now sailing

Land reached; Evil prevailing

Turned away; Mournful aching

Sent to camps; Hearts are breaking


Raise our voices; People loving

Change the world; Kind, accepting

Care for lost; Foreigners welcoming

United together; The Christian living



I wish that I could say that all Christians were loving, and ideal, but sometimes we fail too. I try to love everyone, but I fail. Jesus is the true person who can love us all. We hear that Australia is the Free Country, that we are ideal, but look how far we have fallen. We refuse to let people live. We condemn them to death. Are they of any less importance than us? No. I pray that Australia, and Christianity, will step up to its former standard. We must live life. And let others live as well.
