Note to God

This is a wonderful lyric and beautiful voices from Charice... Praise the Lord. :)

Enjoy and welcome 2012... Hope God will put more tenderness in humans' heart because this world have so much went wrong.... Let's pray. :D

If I wrote a note to God
I would speak what's in my soul
I'd ask for all the hate to be swept away
And for love to overflow

If I wrote a note to God
I'd pour my heart out on each page
I'd ask for wars to end
And for peace to mend this world
I'd say, I'd say, I'd say

Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is overdue
And it seems like so much is goin' wrong
On this road we're on

If I wrote a note to God
I'd say please help us find our way
End all the bitterness
Put some tenderness in our hearts
And I'd say, I'd say, I'd say

Give us the strength to make it through
Help us find love cause love is overdue
And it looks like we haven't got a clue
Need some help from you

Grant us the faith to carry on
Give us hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin' wrong
On this road we’re on

No, no
We can't do this on our own
So, so

(Give us the strength to make it through)
(Help us find love cause love is overdue)
And it looks like we haven't got a clue
Need some help (from you)
Grant us the faith to carry on
(Give us) hope when it seems all hope is gone
Cause it seems like so much is goin' wrong
On this road we're on

No, no
We can't do this on our own
So, so

If I wrote a note to God...
