Why Wait For Heaven

People dying every day

To prove their god's the only way

But what kind of paradise

Would favour some and some deny

Why, why

Why wait for heaven 'til we die

And I heard an ancient tale

A parable of heaven and hell

And all that set the two apart

Was kindness in the human heart

Why, why

Why wait for heaven 'til we die

And just around this time of year

People singing Christmas cheer

But what a joyous song would sound

If love for all were all year round

Why, why, why, why

Why wait for heaven 'til we die
