Maxi Priest Say a Prayer For the World song lyrics

Not just another prayer

Not just another song

When I look at the darkness all around us

I feel like I'm loosin' control

So many people who just don't know where to go

Listen to me now

Not a song goes unsung

Not a voice goes unheard

Ooh I'm hanging on your every word

Say a prayer for the world

Only love can save us now

Say a prayer for the world

Believe that it's gonna be all right somehow

Every day it's a new day

Every day we start again

Say a prayer for the world

And send all your love to all creation oh yeah

Said the world is my pillow, where I rest my weary head

I'm not afraid of dying but I'm not thinking about leaving here oh no

And the voice says learn to sit in silence

Not a flower grows in vain

We must learn to cultivate the garden oh yeah

And when the darkness rolls in

There's a light still shining yeah oh yeah

Suspended here in twilight

Here's a road I'm finding yeah oh yeah

Say a prayer

Not just another prayer

Not just another song
