Every child deserves love

A safe place to run and play

Every man deserves a chance

To bring home a decent pay

Every race is equal

Beloved in God's eyes

When I see discrimination my soul cries

Say a prayer for the lonely

A prayer for the confused

Say a prayer if you'd only

For the secretly abused

Say a prayer for the newborn

With all the battles to be won

Say a prayer for the tired and worn

Say a prayer for everyone



Walk a mile with a stranger

Put yourself in his shoes

Lend a hand to an old one

Good will come to you

In our heads were happy

We go our merry way

In our hearts were all afraid of our dying day



Every child deserves love

A safe place to run and play

Every woman deserves a chance

To bring home a decent pay
