Lyrics

just the other night
outside my daughters door
i heard her pray
like so many nights before
she prayed for peace
then she prayed for love
she prayed for help
and guidance from above

to feed the hungry children
out there on the street
knowing that so many
dont have enough to eat
as i walked away
i knew her prayer was meant for me
because i have a decent job
to support my family

so whats it gonna take
to open every heart
whats it gonna take
for us to do our part
we have so much to give
theres so much we can do
but whats it gonna take
to make it all, make it all come true

i cant change the world
or end problems everywhere
i cant put an end
to all suffering and despair
theres a human need
that all of us can meet
to make sure that every child
has enough to eat

chorus

for the first time in years
i didnt look away
i saw the hungry children
i used to pass each day
they come in every color
in every age and size
its time we work together
its time we realize

chorus

just the other night
outside my daughters door
i heard her pray
like so many nights before
