Still Waiting on the World to Change-Will you be the One?


Will You Be the One?

These are trying times, but we don’t have to accept the looming gloom.
We can bring light to this world.  One by one. One by one, we can end hate.
Darkness does not have to be our fate.  All it takes is one man who will face
Darkness and not turn away.   One man who will illuminate the dark passageways.
All it takes is one small beam.  One man who will stand against the darkness and scream.
All it takes is just one.  One light, shining bright in the darkest night.  One light.
Just one light to lead the way.  That is what we need today.  Will you be the one?  Will you be
the one?  When it’s all said and done, will you be the one?  In this age of great darkness, we
need people who will bravely speak light into the darkness.  If we are going to win, it will
Take an army of like-minded men.   It is said, “The darkest hour is just before the day.”  We cannot
wait for the morning to come.   We need people who will stand in the darkest hours and illuminate
the passageways.  Will you be the one, the one who will stand?   In spite of your fears, with tears streaming down, will you be the one?  In darkness so deep you cannot see your way,  Will you light
the passageway?  From the darkest pit of injustice, Martin stood and screamed, "I have a dream."  All it takes is just one.  One is all it takes.  Will you be the one? Will you be the one?
