Can you hear
The prayer of the children
On bended knee
In the shadow of and unknown room
Empty eyes
With no more tears to cry
Turning heaven ward
Tawrd the light
Crying who will help me
To see the morning light
Of one more day
But if i should die before i wake
I pray my soul to take
Can you feel
The hearts of the children
Aching for home
For something of their very own
Reaching hands
With nothing to hold onto
But hope for a better day
A better day
Crying who will help me
To feel the love again
In my own land
The prayer of the children
On bended knee
In the shadow of and unknown room
Empty eyes
With no more tears to cry
Turning heaven ward
Tawrd the light
Crying who will help me
To see the morning light
Of one more day
But if i should die before i wake
I pray my soul to take
Can you feel
The hearts of the children
Aching for home
For something of their very own
Reaching hands
With nothing to hold onto
But hope for a better day
A better day
Crying who will help me
To feel the love again
In my own land
