I'm not sure if its possible.
To hear me from way down here.
Or if its imaginable
that your really there..

I don't know if your listening
to my simple prayer.
I know I'm nothing special.
And I'm nothing to compare.

So many out there unfortunate.
It seems you turn your shoulder from us.
We beg and ask for little.
Are we that hopeless?

Can you really do miracles?
like the stories for-told.
But my time is growing longer.
And my heart is turning cold.

Why don't you show any mercy?
for the ones hungry from birth?
Please show them mercy Lord.
Because they can't find it here on Earth.

I see the blind man staring.
Was this punishment from you?
Did he really do wrong here.
Or did you see him through?

Could this be reality
or just your little mind game?
Some people ask for love.
Others ask for fame.

Is it that hard to listen?
Is it that hard to care?
Are you still listening Almighty?
I'm hoping your still there...

God help the outcast
I ask nothing from thee.
I can get by on my own Lord
Please God.. let your people free.

i loved reading this

this was my fave stanza:

Why don't you show any mercy?
for the ones hungry from birth?
Please show them mercy Lord.
Because they can't find it here on Earth
