Track #3 - Forgiveness Prayer

Our wordiest song is our simplest:  if we fight to treat each other with kindness, the world will be a different, better place.  There's a Douglas Adams quote (which doesn't fit the context, AT ALL) that was a huge help in writing this.  We'll let you try to figure out which one.
A short clip of the song is available on the YouTubes.

​If we can't find the words to ask,
will forgiveness live?
When all our lifetimes come to pass,
will forgiveness live?
Casting stones, the walls were built,
crumbling with the weight of guilt;
If we can't find the words to ask,
will forgiveness live?

If we begin to doubt the light,
what is there to see?
When silenced voices rule the night,
what is there to see?
Carving worlds, the rivers rise,
flooding blind our newborn eyes;
If we begin to doubt the light,
What is there to see?

If we can find another path,
will forgiveness grow?
When armies fight to quell the wrath,
will forgiveness grow?
Gracious children deep inside,
clear of voice and void of pride;
If we can find another path,
Will forgiveness grow?
