One Of The Ones Who Did |
| For every little girl and every little boy, |
| Whose mother and father is across the waters, |
| Fighting the war they know nothing about, |
| We pray for you tonight, God help us, listen. |
| We’re running outta time, can’t waste it. |
| Have you seen the news today? |
| War is on the uprise, who said it was to be this way? |
| Lord I know that millions won’t make it. |
| This life’s all I have to live and I’ll gladly give it, |
| To be one of the one’s who did. |
| Ever since creation, we’ve been counting down the time, |
| From then and we will see, nations fighting nations. |
| I hide the world inside my heart, |
| Then I read about, man inventing weapons of mass destruction, |
| To tear us all apart, |
| But like the rising of the sun, |
| We’re waiting for you to come and take us away, |
| Those of us who believe in you, |
| Believe me when I say, |
| We’re running outta time, can’t waste it. |
| Have you seen the news today? |
| War is on the uprise, who said it was to be this way? |
| Lord I know that millions won’t make it. |
| This life’s all I have to live and I’ll gladly give it, |
| To be one of the one’s who did. |
| I’m gonna hang on to you Lord, |
| I’m gonna stay strong for you Lord, yeah, |
| I’m gonna keep holding on, gonna keep holding on, |
| To your unchanging hand, Lord you know the plan, |
| That you have for me, it’s not my will, |
| But your way, and I’m gonna follow that way, Lord. |
| Oh lord, with a made-up mind, I’m willing to go on through. |
| I’m not gonna worry about what my friends might say, |
| Or my friends might do, hey, |
| I’m gonna follow you Lord, I’m gonna follow you Lord. |
| If I let it all go, if my momma don’t go, |
| If my sista don’t go, if my brotha don’t go, |
| I’m going, I’m going through, Lord. |
| If my preacher don’t go, said I’m going. |
| Oh Lordy, Oh Lordy, Oh Lordy, |
| I surrender all. |
| With a made-up mind, I’m going through, |
| Care, |
| So father we pray right now, |
| That you hear our cries, |
| For peace, for restoration. |
| Give us hope right now, |
| Without you we can’t make it. |
| We tried and we’re sorry, |
| But we look to the hills, |
| From it cometh our help, |
| Cause we know our help comes from you, |
| We gonna hold on, I said we’re gonna hold on to you. |
| We’re not gonna let go this time father, |
| We’re gonna trust and have faith, the size of a mustard seed. |
| Bless your name Father, you’re worthy. |
| Thank You |
