Down here living in a world on fire
Wondering if love is gonna carry me higher
Souls down here still screaming and crying
Fire keeps burning and the children keep dying
Lord won’t you grant me this one desire
Send more love to this world on fire
World on fire, world on fire
Down here living in a world in pain
Brother, this old town may never be the same
You can sell your soul but you can’t buy love
Yeah, that’s one thing we ain’t got enough of
Lord, won’t you hear me, I ain’t no liar
Send more hope to this world on fire
World on fire, world on fire
Down here living in a world on fire
Where dreams in flames keep rising up higher
World keeps a rockin’ like a hurricane
And there ain’t nobody wants to take the blame
Lord won’t you grant me my one desire
Send more love to this world on fire
World on fire, world on fire
World on fire, I said world on fire
