Chorus
I hope it won't be this way
I hope it won't be this way
I hope it won't be this way
Always
I hope it won't be this way
I'm praying for a brighter day
I hope it won't be this way
Always
Lord make this world a better place
The way you want it to be
Every woman and man, boy and girl
Will know we're one with thee
[chorus]
Take away all our sorrow
Leave our love once home
Leave a bright tomorrow
And never, never leave us alone
[chorus]
I know it won't be this way
I know it won't be this way
I know it won't be this way
Always
I know it won't be this way
I'm searching for a brighter day
I know it won't be this way
Always
Well I know it won't be this way
Always
