Oh Lord, Why Lord/Prayer
I've searched the open sky
To find the reason why oh Lord, why Lord
The color of my skin
Is said to be an awful sin oh Lord, why Lord
No, I cannot understand
No, I can never, never understand
Oh Lord, why Lord i've got to live and give
Much more than I can give oh Lord, why Lord
Oh why, why why, why why
Why why, why why, why Lord
In this world it is no secret
All the problems and hatred
Oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
I just can't seem to find why
My every move is so unseen oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
Why this lonely man must try
And can have no peace of mind
Oh Lord, why Lord
I just can't help but cry
The tears won't stay inside
Oh Lord, why Lord why why, why why, why Lord
I've got to live and give
Much more than I can give oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
I feel the weight of everlasting hate
But my strength will not grow faint
Oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
I'll wear the chains
So every man must see the change
Oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
I ask no special kindness
I ask no special deed oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
Only peace and justice forever more
Oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
Is it so much to ask even of you
To be the same as the majority
Why is it that I must suffer
Without even a cause and no one cares
Oh Lord, why God
I've got to live and give
Much more than I can give oh Lord, why Lord
Why why, why why, why Lord
