We all feel the pain

From hate reaching out

Surviving to suffer

Can't be what this life's about

Will we ever find relief

Before these days turn to the night of the thief?[1]

Every week births a new war

Can we hope to reclaim what we we're created for?

Is there hope for a better world?

I want to be the exception

Against the growing frost[2]

Fan the flame - There is much to gain

From the void of what was lost

Standing in the gap

While either side divides

Is red in tooth and claw

The only way to survive?[3]

Intercede my groans[4]

God, do you hear our cries for mercy?

Weeping into the night

We are exhausted by terror

Is life worth the fight?[5]

Listen!

A symphony has begun

To drown out the clanging

Of a life without love[6]

We are nothing without love![7]

We are nothing without love

We are nothing

Wake up and rise

You have the light

I can see it from your bones bursting

Do not miss a chance

You have the heart inside

To heal a world that's hurting[8]

Love we've known has since grown cold

"How could this persist?"

Keep your face fixed like flint[9]

On the blaze burning in the wilderness[10]

I believe in a hope for a better world![11]

Make me a hope for a better world!
