Oh My God Lyrics

I love this song. I think the writer is trying to say in the end part that our greatest offence is a lack of love and that's the reason he's crying out to God. If we had enough love we wouldn't "move to hurt each other". There's also lots of other situations in these lyrics that are caused by the lack of love. In the end part he's saying "all the cries of thirsty children, this is our inheritance", like couldn't we do any changes to give better life for our offspring and those who are suffering of poverty or war.
