What a miracle is life

the fields are high and fruit is ripe

so hold out your hands

yeah, hold out your hands

And you're the same as me

you breathe the air I breathe

and we don't understand

yeah, we don't understand



And if you don't ask questions

you won't know why

so say a prayer for the dying

while there's still time. So



Pray for good and pray for love

Pray for peace and pray it's enough

pray for salvation, pray that we're right

pray for one day we open our eyes

And pray for them and pray for us

pray one day we can live as one

pray for the children whose time is to come

just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we've done



We all see the same sun

each day a golden praise is sung

to the wonder of man

yeah, to the wonder of man

And when we look why can't we see

all the riches that are free

oh we don't understand

yeah, we don't undertstand



And if you don't ask questions

you won't know why

so say a prayer for the dying

while there's still time. So



Pray for good and pray for love

Pray for peace and pray it's enough

pray for salvation, pray that we're right

pray for one day we open our eyes

And pray for them and pray for us

pray one day we can live as one

pray for the children whose time is to come

just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we've done
