[Intro]
Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord, hoo, hoo, hoo
[Verse 1]
When I turn on the evening news
What I see makes me so blue
People run, people trying to find
Trying to find another peace of mind
Whole lot of despair
Frustration fills the air
What are we gonna do?
Can't you hear me crying?
[Pre-Chorus]
Please, we've got to fall down on our knees
Raise our hands in the air
Crying please, Father, please
[Chorus]
Father, will we ever learn to love each other?
To Thee I pray
Father, teach us we can learn to live together
Hear me this day
Comes a time in life when you make a stand
Put down your gun and take your brother's hand
After all the pain I know no other way
To Thee I pray
(To Thee I pray) Yeah, yeah
(To Thee I pray) To Thee I pray
(To Thee I pray) Yeah
(To Thee I pray)
[Verse 2]
This old world's such a crowded place
Some would rather just separate
Children feel we don't give a damn
Can't we just live together cried a desperate man
It's a long, long winding road
Some may never find their pot of gold
Won't anybody listen when you hear baby crying? Please
We've got to fall down on our knees
Raise our hands in the air, crying please
Children please
[Outro]
Father, will we ever learn to love each other?
To Thee I pray
Father, teach us we can learn to live together
Hear me this day
Comes a time in life when you make a stand
Put down your gun and take your brother's hand
After all the pain I know no other way
To Thee I pray
(Father, will we ever learn to love each other?)
To Thee I pray
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
We can learn, we all can learn to live together
(Comes a time in life when you make a stand) Hey
(Put down your gun and take your brother's hand) Oh
(After all the pain I know no other way)
No, no, no, to Thee I pray
(Father, will we ever learn to love each other?)
I pray, this is my prayer to you, Father
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
Oh, we can learn to live together
(Father, will we ever learn to love each other?)
Will we learn to love one another, hoo
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
Oh, we can learn to live together, hoo
(To Thee I pray) Can we learn?
(To Thee I pray) Can we learn?
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
This is my prayer, my prayer for the world today
(To Thee I pray) Hoo, can we just love? Can we just love?
(To Thee I pray) Woo
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
We can learn to love, learn to live together, ooh-hoo
(To Thee I pray) Oh
(To Thee I pray) Yeah, hoo-hoo
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
This is my prayer for the world today, to love
(To Thee I pray) To live, to live
(To Thee I pray)
(Father, teach us we can learn to live together)
