A Prayer For Every Year

Artists : Plus One : A Prayer For Every Year

Do you remember me
Long ago on bended knee
I prayed to you with childhood fantasies
Well I'm all grown up now can you still need help somehow
I'm not a child but my heart still can dream

Please hear my prayer tonight
And help me do what's right
Not for myself but for the world in need

Chorus
No more lives torn a part
That wars would never start
And time would heal all hearts
Every man would have a friend
And right would always win
And love would never end
This is my prayer for every year

May kindness rule our lives
Not just the strong survive
Sweet tears for all the thousand years gone by

This is the world I pray
We will share someday
That we begin by reaching out my hand

Chorus

What is this illusion called the innocence of youth
Maybe only in that blind belief will we ever find the truth

Chorus

This is the prayer I hope you'll hear
This is my prayer for every year
