Every life, every beating heart
|
Has a searching soul inside
|
Ever needing, ever seeking out
|
The meaning of life
|
|
I refuse to believe that we're only here to live and die
|
In the futile days of a faithless haze
|
Never asking why, why would I
|
When I've felt the hand of eternity
|
It's a legacy I will leave, I want to leave
|
|
For the children of the world
|
Every single little boy and girl
|
Heaven plants a special seed
|
And we must have faith for these
|
|
I will stand for the truth I've seen
|
So the truth is seen in me
|
I will give from the source of love
|
So all that I believe is handed down
|
For the road that's yet to be travelled on
|
By the ones who will carry one, I'll carry on
|
|
[Chorus 2x:]
|
For the children of the world
|
Every single little boy and girl
|
Heaven plants a special seed
|
And we must have faith for these
|
Red and yellow, black and white
|
They are precious in the Father's eyes
|
Like the Father may we see
|
That they have a destiny
|
And give them the light of love to lead
|
Though the darkness around us now
|
To a place where hope is found
|
