Children For Peace - But for the Grace of God, There Go I Written by: Alec Fraser Performed by: Jimmy Bowskill Band I thank my lucky stars I'm alive, With a loving family by my side. But I feel some disgrace, for the blues in the faces Of every war torn child. But for the grace of God, there go I. I'd like to help won`t you let me try. To do nothing would be a sin, so let the giving begin. But for the grace of God, there go I. But for the grace of God there go you. No country, no love, just the blues. If the tables were turned, you'd need the money that's burned. But for the grace of God, there go you. Someday, something's gotta change. This world's in for some kind of re-arranging. For every tank they buy, they get no thanks from I. For the children for peace are on the rise. But for the grace of God, there go I. I like to help you, won`t you let me try. To do nothing would be a sin, so let the giving begin. But for the grace of God, there go I. (Repeat chorus) |
