I turn the TV on, can't stand what's goin' wrong, so many people lost and they're trying to

find their way back home, what's going on cause we need solutions must wake up cause we're so

confused we got kids selling drugs, girls needing love, always want more cause there's never enough



[Chorus 1]

This is a critical emergency so get up, we gotta come together, cause our brothers and sisters

are in desperate need so get up, shine the light and get up, don't ever give up



We all have said it but we just don't get it people keep hurting



And we choose to forget it if you really want it lets do something about it cause you are the

future and the future is now



[Chorus 2]

This is a critical emergency (get up) don't wait don't hesitate

Cause our brothers and sisters are in desperate need (so get up)

Shine the light and get up

Don't ever give up



[Bridge]

Father show us how to love

There's a world that needs your touch

Lead us to the river of new life
