Something I Believe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
May God be with you on your way
And may he too throughout your day
Be ever present at your side
Should ever the need arise
Oh holy Mary mother of him
How can you watch us suffering?
Let millions of people so cruelly die
If you are who you are reply
And I'd gladly give up my role
That of a worthless soul
Hopelessly searching for something I believe
Doesn't really exist
If it does then why is it
Whenever the world prays for peace
Wars increase
When I was little my mother would say
Dear God will help you if you pray
But where was he when my mother died
How I prayed she'd remain alive
Oh I read how he came down to earth
And all the wonders that he worked
But that was then, now all I can say
If only he'd come today
Oh I'd gladly give up my role
That of a worthless soul
Hopelessly searching for something I believe
Doesn't really exist
If it does then why is it
Whenever the world prays for peace
Wars increase
