When a Child Is Born
A ray of hope flickers in the skyA tiny star lights up way up highAll across the land dawns a brand new morn'This comes to pass when a child is bornA silent wish sails the seven seasThe winds of change whisper in the treesAnd the walls of doubt crumble tossed and tornThis comes to pass when a child is bornA rosy hue settles all aroundYou've got the feel you're on solid groundFor a spell or two no one seems forlornThis comes to pass when a child is bornAnd all of this happens because the world is waitingWaiting for one child black, white, yellow, no one knowsBut a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughterHate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone's neighborAnd misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, foreverIt's all a dream, an illusion nowIt must come true some time soon somehowAll across the land dawns a brand new morn'This comes to pass when a child is born
