Lyrics
Chorus:
Where there is darkness let there be light
Where there is wrong let there be right
Where there is sickness let there be health
Where there is poverty let there be wealth
Verse 1:
Lord help the refugee in the dark time
show them some mercy
throw out life line
you see them crying our for help
you know they cannot help themselves
you've got to love & share the wealth
Mr. president
(chorus)
Verse 2:
Take them out of destruction poverty
They need clothes water food to eat
you see them crying our for help
you know they cannot help themselves
you've got to love & share the wealth
Mr. president
(guitar solo)
you see them crying our for help
you know they cannot help themselves
you've got to love & share the wealth
Mr. president
