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
