I tuned in to the tv once again today |
|
Watch the news to educate my mind |
|
The destruction and the chaos that confronted me |
|
It's our world caught in it's own demise |
|
(As I sat there I began to cry) |
|
The situation worsens every day that goes by |
|
(And I thought how can this be, Lord why) |
|
So heavy on me all those that are hurting inside |
|
If I had a dollar for every heart that's broken |
|
For every word of love unspoken |
|
For every childhood dream that's never realize |
|
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing |
|
And all the ways we could be moving on |
|
Maybe I could buy you paradise |
|
Just to see some hope in your eyes |
|
Sometimes life it seems a bit too much for me |
|
More things we must survive on top of all that we had before |
|
Broken hearts, broken homes, kids abused left alone |
|
So many in the streets, homeless with no food to eat |
|
(I know God hears us crying out) |
|
Run to Him for all the answers, don't turn away |
|
(If we look to Him there is no doubt) |
|
He'll give us all the help we need, he knows the way, still if I |
|
If I had a dollar for every heart that's broken |
|
For every word of love unspoken |
|
For every childhood dream that's never realize |
|
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing |
|
And all the ways we could be moving on |
|
Maybe I could buy you paradise |
|
Just to see some hope in your eyes |
|
There are so many troubles, God knows what we need to do |
|
He has us in His hands, knows what we are going through |
|
Silver and gold have I none, what I have I give to you |
|
His word says we can make it and I know His word is true |
|
Here's to the hurting souls and for all the broken hearts |
|
All those who've been abused, who's life has been torn apart |
|
I don't have all the answers, what I have I gladly give |
|
It's in him there is life, if in him we live and if I |
|
If I had a dollar for every heart that's broken |
|
For every word of love unspoken |
|
For every childhood dream that's never realize |
|
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing |
|
And all the ways we could be moving on |
|
Maybe I could buy you paradise |
|
Just to see some hope in your eyes |
|
If I had a dollar for every heart that's broken |
|
For every word of love unspoken |
|
For every childhood dream that's never realize |
|
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing |
|
And all the ways we could be moving on |
|
Maybe I could buy you paradise |
|
Just to see some hope in your eyes |
