Say a little prayer, baby, 'fore you go to sleep
Say a little prayer and give the lord thy soul to keep
Say a little prayer, darlin'
For all the people in the world
That their hearts will be happy, filled with joy

Say a little prayer for all those who are poor
That they'll find peace of mind and the ones they adore
Say a little prayer, baby
For all those who have much more
That they'll find it in their hearts to lend a helping
hand

Nobody goes to church on Sundays anymore
Is that why the world is fighting, filled with wars
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net]
Nobody goes to church or thanks the lord for what they
eat
Is that why half the world is starving
Running out of necessities
I wonder - wonder if we're doing right

Say a little prayer, say a little prayer
Say a little prayer, say a little prayer
Say a little prayer, children

So say a little prayer, baby
For all the children just like you
Growing like a flower in the morning dew
Say a little prayer that they may grow to see
The world full of love and harmony

Mm mm mm ....
