MOTHER'S PRAYER

Let the wind blow, let the rain come down

I am free from harm

And I watch as the clouds rush by

With my baby asleep in my arms

And I feel tied to every mother that I see

I can't watch the war reports on TV

And if I had all the money in this world

I'd buy every gun and throw it into the sea

Let the wind blow, let the rain come down

May we all be free from harm

Free to watch as the clouds rush by

With our babies asleep in our arms

And I feel tied to every mother who has hunger in her eyes

Who must comfort when there's not enough to eat

Tell me where has the plenty gone

And tell me what in the world is more important than these

Let the wind blow, let the rain come down

May we all be free from harm

Free to watch as the clouds rush by

With our babies asleep in our arms

And I don't want to hear about religions and boundaries

I don't want to hear about the ones who hoard their gold

And I don't want to hear about the might and the majesty

Do the ones who make this madness have no babies to hold?

Let the wind blow, let the rain come down

May we all be free from harm

Free to watch as the clouds rush by

With our babies asleep in our arms

With our babies asleep in our arms

from Out of the Blue
