Paradise Lyrics

Paradise lyrics

I tuned in to the tv once again today 
Watch the news to educate my mind

The destruction and the chaos that confronted me 
It's our world caught
in it's own demise 
(As I sat there I began to cry) 
The situation
worsens every day that goes by 
(And I thought how can this be, Lord why)

So heavy on me all those that are hurting inside 

If I had a dollar
for every heart that's broken 
For every word of love unspoken 
For every
childhood dream that's never realize 
If I had a penny for all the wrong
we're doing 
And all the ways we could be moving on 
Maybe I could buy
you paradise 
Just to see some hope in your eyes 

Sometimes life it
seems a bit too much for me 
More things we must survive on top of all that
we had before 
Broken hearts, broken homes, kids abused left alone 
So
many in the streets, homeless with no food to eat 
(I know God hears us
crying out) 
Run to Him for all the answers, don't turn away 
(If we look
to Him there is no doubt) 
He'll give us all the help we need, he knows the
way, still if I 

If I had a dollar for every heart that's broken 
For
every word of love unspoken 
For every childhood dream that's never realize

If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing 
And all the ways we
could be moving on 
Maybe I could buy you paradise 
Just to see some hope
in your eyes 

There are so many troubles, God knows what we need to do

He has us in His hands, knows what we are going through 
Silver and gold
have I none, what I have I give to you 
His word says we can make it and I
know His word is true 
Here's to the hurting souls and for all the broken
hearts 
All those who've been abused, who's life has been torn apart 
I
don't have all the answers, what I have I gladly give 
It's in him there is
life, if in him we live and if I 

If I had a dollar for every heart
that's broken 
For every word of love unspoken 
For every childhood dream
that's never realize 
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing 
And
all the ways we could be moving on 
Maybe I could buy you paradise 
Just
to see some hope in your eyes 

If I had a dollar for every heart that's
broken 
For every word of love unspoken 
For every childhood dream that's
never realize 
If I had a penny for all the wrong we're doing 
And all the
ways we could be moving on 
Maybe I could buy you paradise 
Just to see
some hope in your eyes
