Songs That Changed the World--The Most Important Songs of the Rock Era: "Heaven Help Us All" by Stevie Wonder

    "Heaven Help Us All" is a plea for a better world and a cry out for help from above.  As he says, heaven help the man who sold a gun to a confused young man without knowing more about him.  When we don't look out for each other, the whole world falls apart.



    "Heaven Help Us All"
    by Stevie Wonder

    Lyrics and Music by Ron Miller

    Heaven help the child who never had a home,
    Heaven help the girl who walks the street alone
    Heaven help the roses if the bombs begin to fall,
    Heaven help us all.


    Heaven help the black man if he struggles one more day,
    Heaven help the white man if he turns his back away,
    Heaven help the man who kicks the man who has to crawl,
    Heaven help us all.


    Heaven help us all, heaven help us all, help us all.
    Heaven help us, Lord, hear our call when we call
    Oh, yeah!


    Heaven help the boy who won't reach twenty-one,
    Heaven help the man who gave that boy a gun.
    Heaven help the people with their backs against the wall,
    Lord, Heaven help us all.


    Heaven help us all, heaven help us all, heaven help us all, help us all.
    Heaven help us, Lord, hear our call when we call.


    Now I lay me down before I go to sleep.
    In a troubled world, I pray the Lord to keep, keep hatred from the mighty,
    And the mighty from the small,
    Heaven help us all.
    Oh, oh, oh, yeah!
    Heaven help us all. Source URL: http://acsblogrock.blogspot.com/2011/09/songs-that-changed-world-most-important_06.html
