'I Wonder What Kind Of World' Poem by Linda Winchell

I wonder what kind of world it will be?
In the next forty years or so?
Will it still be struggling with its deficits?
I would really like to know.

Will it have homeless still living in the streets?
And poverty the world around?
Will it still have drugs and human abuse?
Will this be something that’s still found?

I just hope that I leave this world
A bit better than where it was before.
I wouldn’t like to be looking down from Heaven
And know that I haven’t done so.

Will sin still be in the world?
Or will the earth not even exist?
Will God have come to take all of His faithful home?
I want to know all of this.

I guess the things I seek answers to
Will just have to be.
And continue to just do the best I can
Sharing all of God’s love
That He’s given to me.
