[Verse 1]
Look back upon the crossroads, seeing in our grandfathers lives
That change has come and gone, we're not any more wise
Make me want to holler, make me want to moan
Pray for peace
Pray for peace
Prayer for peace
[Verse 2]
I hate to think our grandmothers would be broken hearted
To see their children's children right back where we started
(Prayer for peace, it's a prayer for peace)
Make me want to holler, make me want to moan
Prayer for peace
It's a prayer for peace
[Guitar solo]
Prayer for peace
[Verse 3]
We'll thank heaven for a change, I've seen in my lifetime
Our children are teaching us to be ever more color blind
[Bridge 1]
Color blind, color blind, color blind
Wish we could be color blind
Color blind, color blind, color blind
Wish we could be color blind
Color blind, color blind, color blind
Wish we could be color blind
Color blind, color blind, color blind
Wish we could be color blind
[Verse 4]
The innocence and love seen in our children's face
Makes me pray ignorance and hate disintegrate into space
Shall we pray
Prayer for peace
It's a prayer for peace
Pray for peace
It's a prayer for peace
[Bridge 2]
Chicago, Paris, Charleston, New Orleans, San Bernandino, Boston, Orlando, Ferguson Missouri
Let us pray together
Let us pray for peace
Let us pray together
[Verse 5]
If Martin Luther King sat on the mountain today my friends
It'd be so good to have brother Martin pray again
But what would Martin Luther King, what would he dare to think?
Would the state of the world today cause brother Martin to drink?
