I said a prayer today,
that He would help you find your way.
That God would hear me pray, yeah.
That your cold heart would melt away.

We are all made in God's image, but only a few will accept that.
Where were you when these people needed help'

Where were you when his doubts being planted'
Where were you when he thought prayers un-granted'
Where were you for some simple compassion'

Where were you when his path was unchosen'
Where were you when he reached out unknowing'
What kind of seeds have you been sowing'

We are all made in God's image, but only a few will accept that.
Where were you when these people needed help'

Where were you when his hatred was forming'
Where were you when confusion was swarming'
Where were you, where was I' Ignoring.

Let's all try and do better for each other.
Make the last second shot beat the buzzer.
I see you swimming up stream - take my hand brother.

A poor man and his oppressor,
have one thing in common.
God gave eyes to both.
