Take a look around you
And tell me what you see
Another day of turmoil
Or a day to set you free

Take a look around you
At what this earth has got to give
At what it has to offer
So that you and I can live

Take a look around you
And decide which path to choose
Only you can make the choice
If you win or if you lose

Take a look around you
At this green and pleasant land
But will it still be here for our kids
When we are not around

Take a look around you
At the destruction man can cause
When he subjects our fair lands
To industrial applause

Take a look around you
And think what you could achieve
If you truly cared for this fair land
If you had the courage to believe

Take a look around you
Let's save what we've got left
Of a land once so full of beauty
**Don't condemn this land to death
