A peaceful world long gone
Remembered only in a song
Now it's different it's all changed
It's been led by humanity
Different races set apart
Human survival plays it's part
Human freedom gone too far
A world of people have strayed apart.

I will stand and I will pray
for the coming of the day
when you'll come back
to take me home to stay
I will wait and persevere
and when you come
I'll be waiting here
for you.

The days are long
and trials hard
the pressures on
to stray apart
But I'll stand close to your side
and hope I pray to stand by you
for the rest of all my days.

A voice of one calling in the desert,
'Prepare the way for the Lord,
make straight paths for him.'
