Justice

Justice seems so far away
I hope we meet you one day
So veiled, might not even recognize your face
Shine your light upon the world, we pray
Justice seems so far away
I hope we meet you one day, one day

One day, one day, we'll see everyone is made
From the same dust, just go check the DNA
It's the same dust as the stars, way out in space
And just like the stars, we were made to shine our rays
All connected we're a constellation, like the Milky Way
One day it'll only be we, no more they
One day we will see we are the same
And feel each other's pain
Any injustice and humanity will raise up as one
And we'll break all the chains of oppression
No more weight/wait
One day, we'll use peace instead of weapons
One day, we will put away the guns, and the blades
And the bombs, no more violence
Because they will never bring the type of justice that we hope to create
One that'll never fade
A justice that will last until the end of our days
Where injustice finds a place in books of history where it should stay
Praying we can turn the page, 'til that day

Justice seems so far away
I hope we meet you one day
So veiled, might not even recognize your face
Shine your light upon the world, we pray

We pray, we pray, because Justice comes from God
That's one of His names
Out of all of His creations, that's His favorite thing
When we're working to bring justice, He will come to our aid
Helping us find a way
We pray, God help the light of Justice to shine
We say, we want justice but without the Divine
We may keep on coming up short, try adjusting our aim
And no longer equate
Justice with wanting law in order in a system that was unjustly made
For a few to benefit while the rest are in pain
Or thinking justice and revenge are the same
We pray for God to help us create
The type of justice that empowers everyone to see the part they can play
Choosing truth and righteousness
And to remove every trace of prejudice off the face of the Earth
As we birth a new Day where the Day star of Justice awaits
'Til that day

Justice seems so far away
I hope we meet you one day
So veiled, might not even recognize your face
Shine your light upon the world, we pray
