While I’m sitting here
All the world is fighting
While I’m playing here
For wisdom I’m praying

So please Lord help me to see
What the people can be
So please Lord help me to see
For what our lives were made to be

Help me be
Help me do
What in heaven is true
Then the world, my brother, will be
Better place for me and you
Then the world, my sister, will be
Better place for me and you

While I’m sitting here
All theses words are echoing
Why am I still here
All the world is dying

So please Lord help me to be
An agent of love wherever I am
So please Lord help us to be
Workers in your plan

Help me be
Help me do
What in heaven is true
Then the world, my sister, will be
Better place for me and you
