Ray Charles - Heaven Help Us All - Features Gladys Knight lyrics

Heaven help the boy who never had a home Heaven help the girl who walks the streets alone Heaven help the roses if the bombs begin to fall Lord won't you help us all Mmmhmm 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 (uh) Heaven help us all Heaven help us all (heaven help us) heaven help us all, help us all (oh we need you Jesus) Heaven help us, Lord (Oh Lord) hear our call (hear our call) when we call (oh when we call) Oh, yeah! Heaven help the boy who won't reach twenty-one (you tell em Ray) Heaven help the man who gave that boy a gun (shame shame) Heaven help the people with their backs against the wall Lord, won't you help us all. Heaven help us all (oh Lord) heaven help us all, help us all Heaven help us Lord (oh Lord) hear our call (hear our call) when we call (when we call, oh, when we call) We need you to help us all! Ooh ooh ooooh. GLORIA: I want everybody within the sound of my voice this evening to fall down on your knees and say a prayer, asking for his guidance, his grace, his mercy, you might wanna say "Loooord, Lord have mercy! OHHHHHH!" Now I lay me down before I go to sleep In a troubled world, I pray the Lord, the Lord to keep Keep hatred from the mighty, and the mighty from the small Heaven help us all Heaven help us all (oh have mercy) heaven help us all, help us all (we need you Jesus) Heaven help us Lord (oh Lord) hear our call (oh won't you) when we call (oh won't you hear me when I call, oh ohhh oh oh) Heaven help us all (Yeah! I wish I had somebody to help me sing this thing) heaven help us all, help us all (Lord won't you come by here) Heaven help us Lord hear our call (well, ohh, when we call) when we call (oh, when we call) We can't do it without you! Heaven help us all... (FADE OUT)
