Then And Only Then

We search for outside conclusions
To questions we have inside
We search for logical solutions
To problems we cannot hide

We hope and pray, the curse of war will be undone
That the world will be as one
But we can change it on our own, it takes more

Then and only then can we live in perfect harmony
Only if and when we sacrifice our comfort for the least of these
Get together down on our knees
And pray, God give us peace, then and only then

We need to stop looking at ourselves
And look to the one who knows all
He has the answers that can rebuild us
A foundation that will not fall

We hope and pray, the curse of hate will be no more
But it may be different, at least we know
What the power of prayer is for, let's unite

Then and only then can we live in perfect harmony
Only if and when we sacrifice our comfort for the least of these
Get together down on our knees
And pray, God give us peace, then and only then

We know it's gonna take time to get it together
To follow it through but if we try, a little bit harder
Just think what we could do if we only knew

Then and only then can we live in perfect harmony
Only if and when we sacrifice our comfort for the least of these
Get together down on our knees
And pray, God give us peace, then and only then

Then and only then can we live in perfect harmony
Only if and when we sacrifice our comfort for the least of these
Get together down on our knees
And pray, God give us peace, then and only then
