Mama, my mama, mister Cissy Houston

She walks with a beat
As she works the street
In the dead of night
She's been laid off and her kids must eat
And his money's right, oh yes
A world away
Beneath the sun
The earth goes dry
A hungry starving people search for food
As their babies die

We can touch the world
When we meet them at their need
We can touch thеm where they arе
Help them to believe (Help them to believe)
Touch the world, come on, we can I need you oh

(The girl's livin' wild) livin' wild
(How can it be a four month pregnancy?)

When we meet them at their need
We can touch them where they are
Help them to believe (Help them to believe)
Help them to believe, oh, oh

Around the globe people need to know
The answer's theirs today
Oh, some way, somehow
We must let them know
That God gives hope and Jesus (Jesus is the way)
Is the way, is the way, mama, mama, is the way
Say Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ
