The Rhyme in both songs makes it catchy and captures the attention of the listener.

The repetition in both songs helps to put the key message across to the listener.

Using 1st and 2nd person to narrate makes the listener an active participant within the text and makes the text personal.

Where is the love is written in first person and asks direct questions to listener putting the listener on the spot and making them an active participant in the narrative. There is a heavy use of African American slang indicating that it is written from an African American point of view.
There is a tone of lamenting on current state of humankind.  A cynical attitude about the world is conveyed with a plea to solve the problem using love.

Imagine is a much more hopeful text, it is written in second person and is constantly pleading with the listener to imagine a new world, a perfect united world where there is peace, freedom from greed and hunger, people acting as brothers sharing all the world.  Its tone is hopeful and the listener detects an optimistic attitude from the narrator. It is through the eyes of an individual - John Lennon and its his plea for world peace and harmony.

Both songs have been written as a response to senseless deaths due to conflict and are posing solutions to fractured world problems. They are both suggesting that love, peace and a united world is the solution to cure disharmony and conflict in the world.

Love is the key...
Love is the answer...
Love is the solution...
Love is powerful...
Lack of understanding leading us away from unity...

Where is the love?

Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world
And the world will be as one

Imagine

Lyrics to imagine
A much more succinct song.  With a focus on the solution. There is no lamenting commentary about the state of the world.  This makes this song timeless as it can be applied to any world problem.

The powerful chorus which is repeated 3 times however on the final repeat (which only has 2 verses following the verse) is made much longer with constant questioning of

Where's the love

and the offering of solutions

Love is the key...the answer...the solution...is powerful

Protest poetry is often written out of an unjust situation and is seeking a change for the common good.
