We cannot
merely pray to you, O God,

     to end war; for we know that you have made the world

     in a way that man must find his own path to peace

     within himself and with his
neighbor.

 

We cannot merely pray to you, O
God,

     to end starvation; for you have already given us the

     resources with which to feed the entire world,

     if we would only use them wisely.

 

We cannot
merely pray to you, O God,

     to root out prejudice; for you have already given us
eyes

     with which to see the good in all
men,

     if we would only use them rightly.

 

We cannot
merely pray to you, O God,

     to end despair, for you have already given us the
power

     to clear away slums and to give
hope,

     if we would only use our power
justly.

 

We cannot
merely pray to you, O God,

     to end disease; for you have already given us great
minds

     with which to search out cures and
healing,

     if we would only use them constructively.

Therefore we pray to you instead, O God,



For strength, determination and will power,



To do instead of just pray,



To become instead of merely to wish.

My Boss turned me on to this it is hysterical!

THIS IS GREAT...I LOVED IT

Whether you are a Billy Joel fan or not, you probably remember his great
song "We Didn't Start the Fire." Here it is, set to pictures--- someone had
the patience to give us a quick history lesson

Turn up volume, sit back and enjoy a review of 50 years of history in less
than 3 minutes!

Thanks to Billy Joel and some guy from the University of Chicago with too
much time to Google!
