TEACH US TO LIVE God of love — Forgive! Forgive! Teach us how to Truly Live, Ask us not our race or creed, Just take us in our hour of need, And let us know You love us, too, And that we are A Tart of You .. . And someday may man realize That all the earth, the seas and skies Belong to God who made us all, The rich, the poor, the great, the small, And in the Father’s Holy Sight No man is yellow, black or white, And Peace On Earth cannot be found Until we Meet On Common Ground And every man becomes a Brother Who worships God and loves each other.
