Why Do We Divide?
We divide with our thoughts, 
We divide with our words, 
We divide with our actions, 
Why?
We hate with our minds,
We hate with our hearts,
We hate with our mouths,
Why?
We fail to see we all come from God,
We fail to see we were made in His image,
We fail to see we're all the same, 
Why? 
Why do we divide?
Why do we hate?
Why do we fail?
There is hope in the Cross,
There is hope in His name,
There is hope in His grace,
But will we change it all,
Before it's too late?

Hate
Hate comes in words.
Hate comes in actions.
Hate comes in devaluing life.
Putting one person over the other.
It robs us of our potential.
It prevents us from moving forward.
It leads to destruction.
And it is pointless.
There is a solution.
There is a chance.
There is HOPE.
It is not popular,
It is not cool,
But it is the only way to heal the world.
He knows your thoughts,
He knows your heart,
He knows your hate,
He KNOWS your pain..
Give that all over to Him,
Realize you can't do it without Him,
And you will begin to heal.
You will begin to love,
You will find peace,
And you will become a light to the world...

By His Stripes...
He took those lashes,
For you...
Took that beating,
For me...
Had that side torn open,
For us...
Took those nails in His hands and feet,
For every man...
Took that spear in His side,
For every woman...
Bore those wounds,
So the world could live...
Because of that sacrifice,
We have a chance.
Because of that love,
All is not lost.
Look to the cross..
Look to the Son of Man..
Look to Jesus..
By HIS stripes...
We WILL be healed....
