Humankind We humans may Have come a long way Toward going too far But here we are Being anyway To become and Come to understand To seek and find Above all the love Of us to go on From what is gone Being in spite of My yesterday I leave it behind To go ahead As I come to be Today instead Of the nevermore Of ever before In the laughter Of ever after With a hopeful heart An open mind To find us in kind Not apart a part Of you and me As we come to see Ourselves as we To be humankind Steven Curtis Lance
