One

Poetic phrases come to mind

Whenever I find injustice being done

And I wonder, what am I gonna do

What can one do except to be one

Talking to two, touching three

Growing to four million

Each of us is one--all of us are one

I go through phases when I realize

It wouldn't be wise to try and bring it down

And I wonder, what am I gonna do

What should one do except just be around

Staying alive, putting out love

Growing to five billion

Each of us is one--all of us are one

Open your heart and let the love come shining through

And you will do what you need to do

To know just where the other you is coming from

He is one--she is one

A tree is one--the earth is one--the universe is one

I am one--we are one

It just amazes me that I can be

Part of the energy it takes to serve each other

And I wonder what am I gonna do

What can one do

Except be one

Each of us is one--all of us are one

We are one

What am I gonna do

Be one
