Take me (us version)

have you once stopped to wonder why all this suffering
what has each man or child done to deserve this thing
maybe the truth is nothing maybe we're all the same
for every crime committed we all must take the blame

there is a new day dawning when our hope fills the skies
legions of love surrender unto our children's eyes
take me because i am ready take me where i belong
take me into forever take me away from wrong

some think the grass is greener that's life for heaven's sake
truth is we share existence what difference does it make
in memory of martin, who spoke of hope though he was without
