[Verse 1: Reba McEntire]
Oh, have you looked around
Have you heard the sound
Of Mama's crying
Or do you turn away
When you see the face
Of the innocent dying
[Pre-Chorus: Lauren Daigle]
In these darkest days
Are you not afraid?
That it's too late
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
You gotta get down on your knees
Believe, fold your hands, and beg and plead
Gotta keep on praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
Pound the floor, and scream His name
'Cause we're still worth saving
Can't go on like this, and live like this
We can't love like this
We gotta give this world back to God
[Verse 2: Lauren Daigle & Reba McEntire]
Have you lost a love?
Do you feel like giving up?
Has your heart been broken?
Are your kids okay?
Will they come home safe?
Do you lie there hoping?
[Pre-Chorus: Reba McEntire]
You can make a wish
You can knock on wood
Ohh, it won't do no good
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
You gotta get down on your knees
Believe, fold your hands, and beg and plead
Gotta keep on praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
Pound the floor, and scream His name
'Cause we're still worth saving
Can't go on like this, and live like this
We can't love like this
We gotta give this world back to God
[Interlude]
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
You gotta get down on your knees
Believe, fold your hands, and beg and plead
Keep on! praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
Pound the floor, and scream His name
'Cause we're still worth saving
Can't go on like this, and live like this
We can't love like this
You can hope the best
Make a wish
The only answer is
We give this world back to God
[Outro: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
Ohh, give it back
Ohh, give it back
Oh, have you looked around
Have you heard the sound
Of Mama's crying
Or do you turn away
When you see the face
Of the innocent dying
[Pre-Chorus: Lauren Daigle]
In these darkest days
Are you not afraid?
That it's too late
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
You gotta get down on your knees
Believe, fold your hands, and beg and plead
Gotta keep on praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
Pound the floor, and scream His name
'Cause we're still worth saving
Can't go on like this, and live like this
We can't love like this
We gotta give this world back to God
[Verse 2: Lauren Daigle & Reba McEntire]
Have you lost a love?
Do you feel like giving up?
Has your heart been broken?
Are your kids okay?
Will they come home safe?
Do you lie there hoping?
[Pre-Chorus: Reba McEntire]
You can make a wish
You can knock on wood
Ohh, it won't do no good
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]
You gotta get down on your knees
Believe, fold your hands, and beg and plead
Gotta keep on praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
Pound the floor, and scream His name
'Cause we're still worth saving
Can't go on like this, and live like this
We can't love like this
We gotta give this world back to God
[Interlude]
[Chorus: Reba McEntire & Lauren Daigle]

Keep on! praying
You gotta cry, rain, tears of pain
