Fires are burning, up the forests!
down along the Amazon!
there´s children starving in Guatémala!
Their just barely hanging on! 

And I pray, they´ll find the answer!
that there´s a Way, to right the wrong!
And Lord while you´re listening could I mention, some troubles of my own!
I got problems, right here at home!

A teenage boy, in Mississippi, brings his daddy's
gun to school!
A little girl in New York city, buy´s cocain for mama to use!

And I pray, they´ll find the answer!
that there´s a Way, to right the wrong!
And Lord while you´re listening could I mention, some troubles of my own!
I got problems, right here at home!

My wife is crying, our baby´s fighting! a battle that she may not win,
the doctors doing, All that he can!
God now it´s all in your hands!

And I pray, they´ll find the answer!
that there´s a Way, to right the wrong!
Now I´m just one Man, a grain of sand!
and a troubled world I know!
But I got a problem, right here at home,
I got a problem, right here at home!
