From the album: Water For A Thirsty Land (LP)
Lyrics
We don't listen any more when teachers shout
Confusing facts, the aged fossils.
We get bored with all the clergymen who doubt
The very Acts of the Apostles.
Where can we turn, can we learn?
Our parents who conceive us,
Politicians who deceive us,
We've turned our backs on those,
Our eyes and ears are closed—
They can't reach us any more.
Who can we trust?
For we must
Find a light to shine inside us,
Something true to guide us,
But who will fire that spark
To lighten up the dark?
Is there anyone who'll walk beside us?
God, are you there
Inside us or above us?
God, do you care?
Can you be a God who loves us?
God, is it true that we can follow you?
That you have a special place
For each member of the human race,
Including me?
God, are you there?
Please be there and speak to me.
