STAND UP AND BE COUNTED

Five billion say thank you across the world

One million people in fields where they toil

Five billion say thanks to their chosen God

Five billion people, but can we applaud?

Five billion eyes see the world's plight

As one million icebergs disappear from sight

Five major continents trying to save

One million trees from the feller's blade

One summers night we remember and share

One more heart who will preserve it and care

Don't wonder what you can do

Take ownership. It's up to you.
