I am a preacher with a message for my people Over the world, scratching on the ground Looking for the peace that nobody has found
I am a spokesman for a better way of living Love is the word and it can be heard If you are young the message can be sung
Let me hear you sing, Hallelujah
Oh tell it to the man who's power is the sermon on the wall Tell it to the man who says you can misjudge them all Tell it 'till it can be heard above the wailing of the crowd Tell it on the field of war and hope you'll soon be justified
There is a better way of life and it's not so hard to find If you live and let the people in your world speak its mind
I am the pupil who sells his life for freedom All over the world and it can be heard If you are young the message can be sung
