Sarah's screaming, another daddy's leaving
How can that much hurt be justified?
Ooh, Frankie's a dealer
His nickname is, 'The Healer'

He makes a living helping people die
Babies making babies
People going crazy
Andy's new best friends are 45

Circle us with angels
Walk us through the danger
Give us light to get us
Through the valley full of shadows and

Deliver us from evil
We are only people
You know we can't make it on our own
Oh, Lord, we need intervention divine

Michael's surfing, revenge at school is certain
He's clicking Triple W dot bomb
Street gang invasions
We've become a dead bolt nation

Security and innocence are gone
We're still discriminating
We're angry and we're hating
We're living in a modern Babylon

Circle us with angels
Walk us through the danger
Give us light to get us
Through the valley full of shadows and

Deliver us from evil
We are only people
You know we can't make it on our own
Oh, Lord, we need intervention divine

Circle us with angels
Walk us through the danger
Give us light to get us
Through the valley full of shadows and

Deliver us from evil
We are only people
You know we can't make it on our own
Oh, Lord, we need intervention divine

Ooh, from America to Asia
Europe to Australia
We're on our knees
Lord, hear Your children cry

Our Father in heaven
Hallowed be Thy name
Forgive us, and lead us
Oh, Lord, we need

Circle us with angels
Walk us through the danger
Give us light to get us
Through the valley full of shadows and

Deliver us from evil
We are only people
You know we can't make it on our own
Oh, Lord, we need intervention divine

Circle us with angels
Deliver us from evil
We are only people
