pray lyrics – justin bieber

and i pray
i just can’t sleep tonight
knowing that things ain’t right
it’s in the papers, it’s on the tv, it’s everywhere that i go
children are crying
soldiers are dying
some people don’t have a home…

but i know there’s sunshine beyond that rain
i know there’s good times behind that pain
hey, can you tell me how i can make a change…?

i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and pray
i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and pray…

i lose my appetite
knowing kids starve tonight
am i a sinner ’cause half my dinner is still there on my plate?
ooh, i got a vision to make a difference
and it’s starting today…

‘cause i know there’s sunshine beyond that rain
i know there’s good times behind that pain
heaven, tell me i can make a change…

i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and pray
i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and…

i pray for the broken-hearted
i pray for the life not started
i pray for all the lungs not breathing.
i pray for all the souls that need a break.
can you give ’em one today?
i just can’t sleep tonight
can someone tell me how to make a change…

i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and pray
i close my eyes and i can see a better day
i close my eyes and i pray (oh)
i pray
i pray
i close my eyes and pray…
