MANNA

The barren sands that need a single drop of fortune
And all the hope the look up to the heavens and pray
A single thought for all the multitudes so poor
And all we can is just look up and stare

The rays that pierce with all of their brightness
And show no sign of the shadow of the clouds
And as we walk and feel the barren mother earth below
All we can do is look up and stare
A single drop to wash the pain
A single drop to ease this sadness
A single drop to raise up life
And its just what we'd die to see

The droplets that would bring a ray of new found joy
on the palms let there be new fortunes drawn
If just a few drops would fall down and quench
The thirst of the mother earth that lies parched

Hope, the mother of all emotions that we believe
The one that leads us on and on and on
We still walk and feel the mother earth below
And all we can do is look up and ask

A single drop to wash the pain
A single drop to ease this sadness
A single drop to raise up life
And its just what we'd die to see
