The struggle every day is to believe
Inherent good can exist in all people
We witness lives torn apart too young
By those who profess to love and care

Inherent good can exist in all people
I learned this as a child
By those who profess to love and care
Seeds planted and nurtured can grow

I learned this as a child
The struggle every day is to believe
Seeds planted and nurtured can grow
We witness lives torn apart too young
