Dear God, is there somebody out there? Is there someone to hear my prayer? I'm a simple man with simple words to say Is there some point in asking? Asking for more only got us where we are today Lost and alone and afraid Give me, love for the lonely Give me, food for the hungry Give me, peace in a restless world Give me, hope for the children Give me, a worldwide religion Give me, peace in a restless world Dear God, can you hear me crying? A whole world crying Looking for something to say We had it all and we threw it all away Is there somebody watching Somebody watching over the mess that we've made We're lost and alone and afraid Give me, love for the lonely Give me, food for the hungry Give me, peace in a restless world Give me, hope for the children Give me, a worldwide religion Give me, peace in a restless world And we need to know there's something good Though all our years of solitude go on and on and on... Give me, love for the lonely Give me, food for the hungry Give me, peace in a restless world Give me, hope for the children Give me, a worldwide religion Give me, peace in a restless world Dear god, is there somebody out there, Is there someone to hear my prayer
