Lyrics
Enough For Everyone
words & music: Bryan Field McFarland ã 2007 sassafrasongs ASCAP
The world would have us believe there's a scarcity.
Not enough for all of "them" AND you & me.
Yeah, the world would keep us afraid so we'll hoard it all.
While the truth we rarely see, but this is what we believe...
There's enough, there's enough / Enough for everyone
More than enough, enough for us / Enough for everyone [repeat]
How long will it take till "us" means ALL OF US?
Planetary, universal - ALL OF US!?
And how long before we see what we throw away…
And that thousands of children die each & every day... EVEN THOUGH
CHORUS
Yes, our cup IS overflowing,
but we plow crops back to the ground.
We can live our faith by showing.
We can turn this all around 'cause… CHORUS
