The fields are high and fruit is ripe
You breathe the air i breathe
Yeah,we don't understand.
And if you don't ask questions,you won't know why
So say a prayer for the dying while there's still time.
Pray for good and pray for love
Pray for peace and pray it's enough
Pray for salvation,pray that we're right
Pray for one day we open our eyes, and
Pray for them and pray for us
Pray for one day we can all live as one
Pray for the children whose time is to come
Just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we've done.
Each day a golden praise is sung
Yeah,to the wonder of man
And when we look why can't we see
All the riches that are free
And if you don't ask questions,you won't know why
So say a prayer for the dying while there's still time.
Pray for good and pray for love
Pray for peace and pray it's enough
Pray for salvation,pray that we're right
Pray for one day we open our eyes, and
Pray for them and pray for us
Pray for one day we can all live as one
Pray for the children whose time is to come
Just pray they forgive us for the stupid things we've done.
