When Will Love Be Strong Enough Poem by Dorsey Baker

How high will
the sun climb
into the sky
When will a gunfighter
be too old
to draw his gun
When does an eagle
become too weak to fly
When does the morning
come up before the sun

When will love be strong enough
to take away the hate
When will love be strong enough
to take away the hate

When will children stop dying
before they are
old enough to be alive
When will the dead
stop dying
When will the moment
of deliverance arrive
When will our tears of
sorrow be dried
and we can stop crying
when will love be strong enough
to take away the hate
when will love be strong enough
to take away the hate?
