Oh oh ohh-oh-oh, oh oh ohh-oh-oh

Oh oh ohh-oh-oh, and I pray

I just can't sleep tonight

Knowing that things ain't right

It's in the papers, it's on the TV, it's everywhere that I go

Children are crying, soldiers are dying, some people don't have a home

But I know there's sunshine beyond that rain

I know there's good times beyond that pain

Hey, can you 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 pray

I lose my appetite (Can't eat, can't eat)

Knowing kids starve tonight

Am I a sinner, 'cause of my dinner, 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

Heaven, tell me I can make a change

I close my eyes and I can see a better day

I close my eyes and pray (And I pray)

I close my eyes and I can see a better day

I close my eyes and

I pray for the brokenhearted

I pray for the life not started

I pray for all the lungs not breathing

I pray for all the souls in need, I pray

Can you give 'em one today?

I just can't sleep tonight

Can someone tell me how to 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

I pray

I pray

I close my eyes and pray
