prayer for humanity

India Arie

If we can learn what it means
to really love ourselves
Then we can learn to love our neighbors
as we love ourselves
And we can live in harmony
see ourselves as a family
This is my prayer for humanity

That we respect our women
and protect our girls
That they feel safe in every corner of the world
That we can live in harmony
see ourselves as a family
This is my prayer for humanity, oh-oh

That every man will be a father to someone
By loving every boy as if he were his only son
That we can live in harmony
see ourselves as a family
This is my prayer
This is my prayer for humanity, oh

That we know that
nobody really wins the war
(Really wins the war)
And every leader knows what power is really for
That we can live in harmony
see ourselves as a family
This is our prayer (This is our prayer)
This is our prayer (This is our prayer)
For humanity, yeah, oh

And every man, woman, boy, and girl
Will hear these words all across the world
And every man, woman, boy, and girl
Will hear these words all across the world
And every man, woman, boy, and girl
Will hear these words all across the world
This is my prayer (This is my prayer)
For humanity
