Power from Above

Sinners are you ready for a little redemption;

To receive forgiveness for what we’ve done?

The time has come to break  bad habits.

It’s time to turn to the wind and sun.

[chorus]

Just a little more power from above,

Just a little more faith, respect and love

For this old earth our only home.

It may take strength to say no

To that power from below

But there’s salvation in the power from above.

There’s a better way than barrels of oil,

There’s a better way than lumps of coal,

If we use our heads and work together.

Renewable power that’s our goal.

[chorus]

[bridge]

What will we do for a better world?

Get on our knees to hope and pray?

Well, that’s not enough unless we change.

The judgment day is every day.

Wars have been fought over who owns what.

Lives have been lost and fortunes won.

But you and I will someday win

‘Cause no one owns the wind or sun.

[chorus]
