Lord, we come to you
Asking you for the strength and the guidance
To be man enough to protect our children
‘Til the day that we die, Amen
Devotion to that higher ground
Each day by day, he’s slowly fading
It’s like we can’t hear the sound
So I gotta be innovated
He sending all over the world now
We need to start making changes
The light is covered up by the clouds
And my life’s constantly raining
When I think about the things you’ve done for me
And how you made me see, truthfully
I ain’t gon’ do you wrong, no
Don’t let no one of us go because I know
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Save me) from the sins I’ve done (Sins I’ve done)
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Save me) ’cause it’s all my fault (‘Cause it’s all my fault)
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Save me) from the belief I’ve lost
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Gonna save me), so I’m praying to you God (Praying to you God)
It’s not safe to say it’s over now
We’re here, now see
Little bodies laying on the ground
It coulda been your baby
Is someone gonna help us out?
They need some food to eat
But there’ll be brighter days
When we’ll be saved
The Lord will send blessings
When I think about the things you’ve done for me
And how you made me see, truthfully
I ain’t gon’ do you wrong no
Don’t let no one of us go because I know
Nobody’s gonna save me (Gonna save me)
Gonna save me (Gonna save me) from the sins I’ve done (Done)
Nobody’s gonna save me (Nobody’s gonna save me)
Gonna save me (Yeah, yeah, yeah) ’cause it’s all my fault (Fault)
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Save me) from the belief I’ve lost (Whoa-oh)
Nobody’s gonna save me (Save me)
Gonna save me (Save me), so I’m praying to you God (Praying to you God, praying to you God)
Every step that we take from this day, oh Lord
We both hope that it’s one of your directions (Save me)
So take this song as a token of our affection (Save me, whoa-oh)
We both apologize, Amen (Save me)
(Save me)
