Ok - I don't know what this is about, but it's how it came to me -

 

Amazing God -

Your loving kindness is better than life.

Around us people perish -

 in war,

 from hunger,

 in poverty,

 from oppression and violence,

 through accidents and disasters,

   natural or of our own making.

And we cling to our lives 

  for another year.

Your loving kindness is better than life.

Amazing God.
