I lose my appetite
Knowing kids starve tonight
Am I a sinner, cause half my dinner is still there on my plate?
Ooh, I got a vision to make a difference
And it's starting today
'Cause I know there's sunshine beyond that rain
I know there's good times beyond that pain, hey
Heaven, tell me how I can make a change?
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and pray
I close my eyes and I can see a better day
I close my eyes and...

I pray for all the ones not breathing
I pray for all the souls in need I pray
