Reflections on Mission Blue

How many cans of tuna do they have to sell?
How many fish do they have to catch?
Does the ocean die we eat -
And will we bear the consequences?

Just take a look, now. Take a look, now.

Do the ethics get swept over
In the frenzy of our busy lives?
These fish cost less than a dollar,
And yet they come from Thailand.

How do we do it? How do we do it?

Will we steward what we’ve been given?
The earth is a gift given of the Lord,
The ocean also is ours to guard.
Will we treasure the beauty of it all?

Will we do it? Will we do it?
