Do You remember me?   Long ago, on bended knee   I prayed to You   With childhood fantasy      Well, I?m all grown up now   Can You still help somehow?   I?m not a child   But my heart still can dream      Please hear my prayer tonight   And help me do what?s right   Not for myself   But for a world in need      No more lives torn apart   That wars would never start   And time would heal all hearts      And every man would have a friend   And right would always win   And love would never end   This is my prayer for every year      May kindness rule our lives   Not just the strong survive   Sweet tears for all   A thousand years gone by      This is the world I pray   We will share someday   Let me begin   By reaching out my hand      No more lives torn apart   That wars would never start   And time would heal all hearts      Every man would have a friend   And right would always win   And love would never end   This is my prayer for every year      What is this illusion called   The innocence of youth   Maybe only in their blind belief   Will we ever find the truth      No more lives torn apart   That wars would never start   And time would heal all hearts      And every man would have a friend   And right would always win   And love would never end      This is my prayer for every year   This is the prayer, I hope You hear   This is my prayer for every year
