Lyrics

[Intro] Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, hoo, hoo, hoo [Verse 1] When I turn on the evening news What I see makes me so blue People run, people trying to find Trying to find another peace of mind Whole lot of despair Frustration fills the air What are we gonna do? Can't you hear me crying? [Pre-Chorus] Please, we've got to fall down on our knees Raise our hands in the air Crying please, Father, please [Chorus] Father, will we ever learn to love each other? To Thee I pray Father, teach us we can learn to live together Hear me this day Comes a time in life when you make a stand Put down your gun and take your brother's hand After all the pain I know no other way To Thee I pray (To Thee I pray) Yeah, yeah (To Thee I pray) To Thee I pray (To Thee I pray) Yeah (To Thee I pray) [Verse 2] This old world's such a crowded place Some would rather just separate Children feel we don't give a damn Can't we just live together cried a desperate man It's a long, long winding road Some may never find their pot of gold Won't anybody listen when you hear baby crying? Please We've got to fall down on our knees Raise our hands in the air, crying please Children please [Outro] Father, will we ever learn to love each other? To Thee I pray Father, teach us we can learn to live together Hear me this day Comes a time in life when you make a stand Put down your gun and take your brother's hand After all the pain I know no other way To Thee I pray (Father, will we ever learn to love each other?) To Thee I pray (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) We can learn, we all can learn to live together (Comes a time in life when you make a stand) Hey (Put down your gun and take your brother's hand) Oh (After all the pain I know no other way) No, no, no, to Thee I pray (Father, will we ever learn to love each other?) I pray, this is my prayer to you, Father (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) Oh, we can learn to live together (Father, will we ever learn to love each other?) Will we learn to love one another, hoo (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) Oh, we can learn to live together, hoo (To Thee I pray) Can we learn? (To Thee I pray) Can we learn? (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) This is my prayer, my prayer for the world today (To Thee I pray) Hoo, can we just love? Can we just love? (To Thee I pray) Woo (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) We can learn to love, learn to live together, ooh-hoo (To Thee I pray) Oh (To Thee I pray) Yeah, hoo-hoo (Father, teach us we can learn to live together) This is my prayer for the world today, to love (To Thee I pray) To live, to live (To Thee I pray) (Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
