the Rebbe Getzel Davis, a bit of poetry, Nina Simone

All that glitters ain’t gold
All that’s holy don’t glitter
In the end we make blessings
with the rubble and the litter

say oo-ooh child things are gonna get easier
oo-ooh child things will get brighter
 
someday we’ll get it together and we’ll get it undone
someday when the world is much brighter
someday we’ll walk together in a beautiful sun
someday when the world is much lighter
– right now, right now, right now 
– originally sung by The Five Stairsteps
