I am looking to the Heavens
But no answer do I see
And I ask myself the question
How can all this killing be?
For if there’s a God in Heaven
He would never let this be
All this killing of his children
All this suffering we see
He would take us by the hand
Lead us to a brighter day
Bring an end to all this madness
He would show us all the way
For if there’s a God in Heaven
An end to war would finally be
We would all just love each other
Live in peace and harmony
Won’t you give us all a sign?
Let your plan and will be done
So we all may know your glory
And a lasting peace begun
Every father every daughter
Every mother every son
Join with me to find the answer
Peace on Earth for everyone
We don’t need to look above
To find the answer that we seek
We need only look inside
It is in the words we speak
It is up to you and me
To make this world a better place
Where all people can be free
And live as one united race
I know there’s a God in Heaven
Watching down on you and me
If we all just work together
Then one day he’ll surely see
All his children of the world
Joining hands in prayer and song
When the people of the world
To one family belong
