Lyrics
When man was first created,
I’m sure his maker meant,
He’d be of good intent,
Kind heart and love,
Forgiving wrong,
And though thru ages fated
To climb our wandering way,
At last we’ll find the day
When joy shall be our song.
I hear from ev’ry doubting Thomas
The world’s a mighty cruel place,
The broken heart, the broken promise,
The evil of the human race,
But you and I don’t think so,
We know there’s something still
Of good beyond such ill,
Of right beyond the wrong,
And we’ll never lose our faith
And hope and trust in all mankind,.
We’ll work and strive while we’re alive,
That better way to find.
As up and down I wander
My weary way and long,
I meet all kinds of folks
Who listen to my song.
