Fires are burning, up the forests
down along the Amazon
there's children starving in Guatemala
they're just barely hanging on
And I pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
and lord while your listen
could I mention
some troubles of my own
I got problems right here at home
A teenage boy in Mississippi
brings his daddy's gun to school
a little girl in New York City
buys cocaine for momma to use
And I pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
and lord while your listen
could I mention
some troubles of my own
I got problems right here at home
My wife is crying
our baby's fighting
a battle she may not win
the doctors doing
all that he can
god now it's all in your hands
And I pray they'll find the answer
that there's a way to right the wrong
now I'm just one man a grain of sand
in a troubled world I know
but I've got a problem
right her at home
I've got a problem
