A NEW BOTTOM LINE Dedicated to and inspired by
Michael Lerner
We need a new
bottom line
Based on love instead of fear
We need a new bottom line
Aligned with hope and vision clear
A realistic
cynical
Approach to this political
World of ours
Won’t take us far
Scared of being
ridiculed
Letting doubt make miniscule
Wisdom’s choice
Our hearts true voice
We need a new
bottom line
Based on love instead of fear

To all throughout humanity
Replacing greed
With generosity
Gratitude, humility
And responsibility
Must pave the way
Everyday
Kindness and
compassion are
Tools to build this world of ours
United strong

Everything is
possible
Change for good unstoppable
If we believe
We can achieve
A world where
we live in peace
With meaning part of society

Economic harmony from
Helping one another to succeed

Instead of all this greed
Everyone feelin’ like it’s you or me
Yeah, yeah

I’m not saying it’s gonna come right away
But with vision we can make it someday
Together we can make it someday
Each of us can make it someday
We need a new
bottom line
Based on love instead of fear
We need a new bottom line
Embracing values we all hold dear
We need a new
