Verse 1
I woke up this morning
Turned on the radio
All I hear is bad news
Knocks me out and makes me confused
All over the world
People are fousing and fighting
All over the world
Nation against nation
All over the world
Starving people search for food and ‘survival'
We are living on the edge

Chorus
Come on and say, say, say
Brother say, a little prayer for the world
Sister say, a little prayer for the world
Everybody c'mon, say a little prayer for the world
Tell the good Lord above that
The world needs more love

Verse 2
Oh, in America, in Europe
Racial tension is on the rise
Makes me wanna break down and cry
All over the street
There's only sex and crime
All over the street
There's only violence and drugs
All over the street
People with no home and hope
We are living on the urge

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
Say a little prayer for the world
Go down on your knees and say it
A little prayer for the world
Stop the violence, stop the war
A little prayer for the world
C'mon everybody, don't be too shy
Give it all you got
Everybody say now, say now
Give it all you got
Come on and say
Come together and say
A little prayer for the world
Come on, everybody come on now
Give it all you got, come on
Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Say it Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Say it for the children, say it for the world
Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Sing it for your brotherman
Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Halleluyah (2x)
Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Sing now (2x)
Halleluyah, a little prayer for the world
Louder, loud and clear
Halleluyah (2x)
Forgive us Father
