Every morning on every news flash
I hear the sorrow of the world
It seems like everybody lost and scared
Trying to make sense of it all
And as I travel to and fro
So many faces passed me by
I see lonely hearts living lonely lives
Just biding their time
And while we call ourselves civilised
Many people living empty lives
As they drone their way
Through day and night
I pray for our world, I pray for every child
I pray for our world, to be filled with smiles
Like the colours of a rainbow
And not just black and white
I pray for our world, to be filled with light
I pray for all of us
To choose the path that?s right
To believe in Allah everyday of our lives
In the evening on the TV news,
I see images of war
I see brother killing brother ,
with no consequence at all
And while those who claim to be leaders
Sell us tales of deceit
But Allah alone know in their hearts
what they reveal and conceal
And while we call ourselves civilised
We go on killing human lives
Too caught up in our own web of lies
Every mother, every father,
Every daughter, every son
Don?t you see that the answer lies
Only with the one
