Lyrics;
Dear God, is there somebody out there
Is there someone to hear my prayer
I'm a simple man with simple words to say
Is there some point in asking
Asking for more only got us where we are today
Lost and alone and afraid

Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me, peace in a restless world
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me, peace in a restless world

Dear God, can you hear me crying
A whole world crying
Looking for something to say
We had it all and we threw it all away
Is there somebody watching
Somebody watching over the mess that we've made
We're lost and alone and afraid

Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me, peace in a restless world
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me, peace in a restless world

And we need to know there's something good
Though all our years of solitude go on and on and on

Give me, love for the lonely
Give me, food for the hungry
Give me, peace in a restless world
Give me, hope for the children
Give me, a worldwide religion
Give me, peace in a restless world

Dear god, is there somebody out there
Is there someone to hear my prayer

Working at Chrysalis Records in L.A., I was lucky to meet Midge Ure. What a wonderful human being as evidenced by his words and music.

[tmr]

His song "If I Was" is super good too!

Drummer Mark Brzezicki of Big Country on the skins!!

[williamgebhart]

How can a song this good be thirty-six years old and I just heard it for the first time?

[floxy]

A simple man with simple words to say
Midge thanks for a simple song in an oh so complicated and complex world
Your lyrics brings tears to my eyes
You should have won a grammy for this song

[floxy]

My father traveled to the UK in 1988 and brought the LP record itself, we played it days on end, it was his favorite song
Today, my Dad passed in 2007 but l have saved it his playlist because this was his favorite song and l love it so much. Today is July 13, 2024, I’m still rocking to it. This song is a masterpiece, it never gets old, especially the lyrics….peace in a restless world. We really need it!

[adnaancassiem]

I loved this song back in the 80s. Brilliant song. We need this in our lives today. We need healing. Peace and everything mentioned in this song.

It's not God's fault, love Midge and Ultravox.. but the people do not treat each other with love and respect. Has nothing to do with God

Dear God, is there somebody out there?
Is there someone to hear my prayer?
I'm a simple man with simple words to say
Is there some point in asking?
Asking for more only got us where we are today
Lost and alone and afraid

[peterzarrella]

Simply amazing song by a tremendous singer/writer. Every time I try to play it, I get a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes!

[elhijodelsol]

This amazing song was a reminder of how bad things were, because the world was a mess back in the 80s, and sadly today the world still is a mess, maybe even worse. Hopefully, younger generations will be capable to make things better for all. 🙏

[brianjames]

I have 2:48 to 3:24 as my ringtone on my phone….love that guitar solo.

[Auschild]

Live aid was organized by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure. History has conveniently forgotten Ure and not given him the accolades heaped on Geldof.

Pure Midge. ALL his songs are fantastic
