Pray Songtext
von Peter Hollens feat. Therry Thomas & Courtney Jensen

I just can′t sleep tonight
Knowing that things ain't right

It′s in the papers
It's on the TV
It's everywhere that I go

Children are crying
Soldiers are dying
Some people don′t have a home

But I know there′s sunshine behind that rain
I know there's good times behind that pain, hey
Can you tell me how I can make a change?

I close my eyes and I can see a brighter day
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)

I lose my appetite
Knowing kids starve tonight


Am I a sinner?
′Cause my dinner
Is still on my plate

I got a vision
To make a difference
And it's starting today

′Cause I know there's sunshine behind that rain
I know there′s good times behind that pain, hey
Can you tell me how I can make a change?

I close my eyes and I can see a brighter day
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray

I pray for the broken-hearted
I pray for the life not started
I pray for all the ones not breathing
I pray for all the souls in need, I pray

Can you give them one today?

I just can't sleep tonight
Can someone tell how to make a change?


I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)

I pray
I pray
I pray
I close my eyes and pray (and pray)
