Pray (aus "Sing meinen Song, Vol. 8") Songtext
von Johannes Oerding

We can make it a better place
When we pray for freedom
It doesn′t matter what a kind of race
When we pray for freedom

So let's live for the Promised Land
Living in harmony
So let′s live with a helpin' hand
Dreams of the new generation
And we pray

What has happened to Paradise?
In motion more are paralyzed
Isolation, immigration
Frustration all over the nation
And we've been wastin′ most our time
Just talkin′ 'bout a face and that′s no sign
Recognize the advice
It is more than only an exercise

Let me say we can find the way
Stand up for the roots and pray


We can make it a better place
When we pray for freedom
It doesn't matter what kind of race
When we pray for freedom

So let′s live for the Promised Land
Living in harmony
So let's live with a helping hand (yeah)
Dreams of a new generation
And we pray (-ay, -ay, -ay)
So let′s pray (-ay, -ay, -ay)

What has happened to Paradise?
Is it turnin' to a world of sorrow and lies?
So many people don't care about rules
Honest people seem to be the fools
Time to wise up, time to rise up
Open your eyes up to the times
Oh, the dreamer gets to live
Just close your eyes and let it in

Let me say we can find a way (yeah)
Stand up for the roots and pray (ohh)


We can make it a better place
When we pray for freedom
It doesn′t matter what kind of race
When we pray for freedom

So let′s live for the Promised Land
Living in harmony
So let's live with a helping hand
Dreams of the new generation
So let′s pray (-ay, -ay, -ay)
So let's pray (-ay, -ay, -ay)

We can make it a better place
When we pray for freedom
So let′s pray
