  • Have you looked around, have you heard the sound
    Mama's cryin'
    Or do you turn away when you see the face
    Of the innocent dyin'

    In these darkest days are you not afraid
    That it's too late

    You gotta get down on your knees, believe
    Fold your hands and beg and plead
    You gotta keep on praying

    You gotta cry, ram tears of pain
    Pound the floor and scream His name
    Cause we're still worth saving

    We can't go on like this and live like this
    We can't love like this
    We gotta give this world back to God

    Have you lost a love? Do you feel like givm' up?
    Has your heart been broken?
    Are your kids okay? Will they come home safe?
    And do you he there hoping?

    You can make a wish, you knock on wood
    It won't do no good

    You gotta get down on your knees, believe
    Fold your hands and beg and plead
    You gotta keep on praying

    You gotta cry, ram tears of pain
    Pound the floor and scream His name
    Cause we're still worth saving

    Can't go on like this and live like this
    We can't love like this
    Gotta give this world back to God

    You gotta get down on your knees, believe
    Fold your hands and beg and plead
    You gotta keep on praying

    You gotta cry, ram tears of pain
    Pound the floor and scream His name
    Cause we're still worth saving

    Can't go on like this and live like this
    We can't love like this
    You can hope the best, make a wish, the only answer is
    We give this world back to God

    Gotta give this world back to God
    Give this world back to God Writer/s: Dallas Davidson, Randy Houser
