    Lyrics;
    Dear God, is there somebody out there
    Is there someone to hear my prayer
    I'm a simple man with simple words to say
    Is there some point in asking
    Asking for more only got us where we are today
    Lost and alone and afraid
    Give me, love for the lonely
    Give me, food for the hungry
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    Give me, hope for the children
    Give me, a worldwide religion
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    Dear God, can you hear me crying
    A whole world crying
    Looking for something to say
    We had it all and we threw it all away
    Is there somebody watching
    Somebody watching over the mess that we've made
    We're lost and alone and afraid
    Give me, love for the lonely
    Give me, food for the hungry
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    Give me, hope for the children
    Give me, a worldwide religion
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    And we need to know there's something good
    Though all our years of solitude go on and on and on
    Give me, love for the lonely
    Give me, food for the hungry
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    Give me, hope for the children
    Give me, a worldwide religion
    Give me, peace in a restless world
    Dear god, is there somebody out there
    Is there someone to hear my prayer

      I never met him (I'd like to because I liked his songs from my teenage) ...A great artist and his song from a while ago is still more as to the point today... sometimes I'm asking myself:"what are we, humans.. 'civilization' ... doing besides messing up in our selfish ego-world...". Nevertheless, I still believe there is someone out there....

    My father traveled to the UK in 1988 and brought the LP record itself, we played it days on end, it was his favorite song
    Today, my Dad passed in 2007 but l have saved it his playlist because this was his favorite song and l love it so much. Today is July 13, 2024, I’m still rocking to it. This song is a masterpiece, it never gets old, especially the lyrics….peace in a restless world. We really need it!
