A Simple Commandment

by Mike Turner

We look ‘cross the Earth
And its problems we see
War, hatred, strife
Our fellows in need

So we send up our prayers
To God’s Loving Son
Seeking His Guidance
As to what can be done

And back comes His Answer
Down from Heaven above
A simple Commandment:
“One another, love.”
