Back to God
by Reba McEntire

Album: My Chains Are Gone

Verse 1
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
In these darkest days
Are you not afraid?
That it's too late

Chorus 1
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
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?
You can make a wish
You can knock on wood
Ohh, it won't do no good

Chorus 1
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 2
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
Ohh, give it back ...
