Dear God, are you there Can you hear me, do you care Dear God, here are we Less than perfect, far from free Oh we take what we get and we don't take no more But we sometimes forget what it was you created us for Dear God, now's the time If you're listening, show some sign Dear God, hear me plead Don't desert us in our need Dear God, lend a hand Is this really what you planned Dear God, in you we trust Though we've failed you, don't fail us
Oh we take what we get but we can't take much more Do you sometimes forget what it was you created us for, dear God I hope and pray you'll lead us to a brighter day Out of the darkness and light up our way, dear God I hope and pray you'll lead us to a better way Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God Light up our way dear God, dear God Love is the answer so light up our way, dear God
