My troubled heart is aching
It's touched by a distant voice
Truth has real power, but so do lies
It's time to make the choice

There's a time for livin'
And there's a time to die
And though I never needed answers
Now I'm asking why

I feel the anger growin'
I'm so confused by all that I see
Brothers killing brothers
For religious bigotry

I see the children's faces
Scarred with rage and fear
And the truth in their hearts
And the hope in their eyes
Is drowning in their tears

It's written in blood
It's written in stone
Earth is home
Earth is home where life must grow
From the seeds of love we'll sow

Fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)
Fire and water
Fire and water

And if our world is to survive
(Gotta survive)
We must turn back this rising tide
(Turn the tide)
Their evil gods have to die
(They have to die)
Tear down their temples, stop their crimes

We'll build a world that's strong and free
Where lust and greed don't breed poverty
And children grow without the fear of war
And when truth is good
It brings so much more

It brings fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)
Fire and water
Fire and water

Fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)

Fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)

Fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)

Fire and water
Sunshine and rain
Fire and water
So life can start again
(We need fire)
