If God has been watching our planet
His heart must be filled with pain
The pain of those peaceful leaders
Whose blood is still flowing in vain

I've got this strange sinking feeling
Maybe there's no room for peace
Can't anybody see all this agony has to cease

If only we could feel what He is feeling
If only we were open to His light
If only we could feel what He is feeling, oh
Peace would overcome the need to fight

God must often have wondered
Where all of His values have gone
Oh yes, our luck might come faster
If we don't walk His path all alone

When I was a kid my mother told me
A lie never lives to be old
But people seem to buy every single lie
And my heart grows cold

If only we could feel what He is feeling
If only we were open to His light
If only we could feel what He is feeling, oh
Peace would overcome the need to fight
Peace would overcome the need to fight
