Lyrics
What's happened to civility,
Respect and the common good?
Most will agree that many hearts,
Have strayed from where they should.

But Republicans and Democrats
and Independents, all;
Can change their tone and show respect,
To distance anger's call.

Let's live the Golden Rule, my friends
Remember what we've been taught.
We're all created equal under God,
It's why many wars have been fought.
. . .It's why many wars have been fought.

Too many tend to argue,
Others' actions did provoke;
As if they had no choice
In what they did or how they spoke.

But honest men and women,
Will readily agree;
That everything I think and say
Is always up to me.

Let's live the Golden Rule, my friends
Remember what we've been taught.
We're all created equal under God,
Our freedoms have been bought.
. . . Our freedoms have been bought




For all who quickly judge
That such thinking is too weak,
Remember Earth's inherited
By the humble, kind and meek.

That's not to say there is no need
To defend 'gainst evil men;
And shed our blood or lose our lives,
For liberty to win

Let's live the Golden Rule, my friends
Remember what we've been taught.
We're all created equal under God,
It's why our Fathers fought.
. . . It's why our Fathers fought.

We're better men and women
Than often we appear.
So, let's respect each other,
The common good is clear.

Let's get back to civility,
Respect and the common good
Choose the better way, my friends
And live as patriots should.

It's time to live the Golden Rule,
To do what's simply right.
We're all created by our God,
It's why our troops still fight!
. . . It's why our troops still fight!

The Golden Rule is right,

Let's all live closer to the light.

. . . Yes, let's all live closer to the light
