Verse 1:
I wish that no one would die today
That no one would ever forget to pray
I wish that we would just get along
Instead of replaying that same old song
For all of our questions we get no answers
Not enough knowlege to cure all our cancers
Why can't we hold on to the thought
That soon we'll be subjects of the Lord
Why can't we open our eyes and see
the power the might the majesty

Hook 1:
The faith of the millions
Singing in harmony
With strength in numbers
That same old melody....

Chorus:
But a dream is not enough
Could a diamond in the rough
Ever shine through
Brand new
Life is wasted on the living
If we can't see what we've been given
It's true, it's too damn true.
But could my dreams still be counted
If my faith is firmly grounded?

Verse 2:
I wish that no one would cry today
That no fathers would run away
I wish that I could teach the world
To sing the songs of a marching army
'reach for the sky'; they keep on tellin' us
Just try to draw on the strength that they're bringin' us
And God how I want us all to hold hands
encircled by love, surrounded by friends
Why can't we open our eyes and see
The power the might the majesty

Hook 2:
The faith of the children
Singing in harmony
Leading the world
Through that same old melody...

Bridge:
And I wish the world would lie down and cry
Wash away all our hurt so our spirits can fly
I wanna help the world
do the best that we can do
Moving mountains every day
And I don't wanna get the blues...

And I know it's a hard ask
But I know we can do anything with time.... Oh time

Chorus - I wish you'd show some love!
