You promised me a bountiful land
Rich and beautiful to my eye
Everywhere there's destruction
Please tell me why
(Teach us Almighty God, to be patient)
You said there was no place on earth
That could not be touched by your light
Let's shine where a little there is darkness
Please tell me why
(Open our minds and open our eyes so that we may see)
Somewhere up there, somewhere near peace doesn't exist
I feel it deep in my soul
That is why I wonder how this world can be
Be so cold (be so cold)
I wonder how this world can be so, so cold
A child is lying dead on the ground man
I take a hand and I call You
Stop the destruction, please help us to carry on I'm laid upon
We worship you and we praise your name, Lord
I lift my hands up to call you
You promised me that we'll have heaven on earth
I pray, I pray
Somewhere up there, somewhere near peace doesn't exist
I feel it deep in my soul
That is why I wonder how this world can be
Be so cold, so cold
(Keepers on the street and now pass)
Yes, you promised me Lord
Oh, you promised me Lord
Yes, you promised me Lord, peace on earth
Yes, You promised me Lord
Oh, You promised me Lord
Yes, You promised me peace on earth
Oh-oh (yes, You promised me Lord)
You promised me Lord (oh, You promised-)
Oh, you promised me (yes, You promised me), peace here on earth
Oh Lord!
