This song has been running in my head all day, so I might as well share it. I am tediously atheist, but the ache in these lines always gets me:
"People killin' people dyin'
Children hurtin' hear them cryin'
Can you practise what you preach?
And would you turn the other cheek?
Father, father, father, help us
Send some guidance from above
'Cause people got me, got me questioning
Where is the love?"
I know we want to be better than we are.
We'll keep trying. 🕊️
@MLClark this is a great interprutation mixed with Mravin Gayes ... "What's Going On "

I was debating following this up with Marvin Gaye! Great minds, etc!
But I was going to share "Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)". I especially love the video that shows neighbourhoods in the 1970s.
We've come so far in some ways, but we're still fighting the same battles in others.
