Lyrics

[Chorus] If you really wanna keep it You gotta give it away If you really wanna help somebody Get on your knees and pray If you really wanna show the world Some peace and faith If you really wanna keep it You gotta give it away, away [Verse 1] You might meet some people living out on the streets You might meet somebody with no shoes on his feet You might even see a drunk man lying lost in misery That's when it's time to reach your hand out, boy, show some sympathy [Chorus] If you really wanna keep it You gotta give it away If you really wanna help somebody Get on your knees and pray If you really wanna show the world Some peace and faith If you really wanna keep it You gotta give it away, away [Verse 2] Sometimes I get so discouraged when there's nothing I can do Trying to help somebody that I love with the trouble she's going through I wanna be that sweet salvation, I wanna carry the news About peace and hope, faith and love, with everything I do [Outro] If you really wanna keep it You gotta give it away, away
