And then all that has divided us will merge

 

And then compassion will be wedded to power

 

And then softness will come to a world that is harsh and unkind

 

And then both men and women will be gentle

 

And then no person will be subject to another's will

 

And then all will be rich and free and varied

 

And then the greed of some will give way to the needs of many

 

And then all will share equally in the Earth's abundance

 

And then all will care for the sick and the weak and the old

 

And then all will nourish the young

 

And then all will cherish life's creatures

 

And then all will live in harmony with each other and the Earth

 

And then everywhere will be called Eden once again.

 

And then all that has divided us will merge
