"When A Child Is Born" lyrics

When A Child Is Born

A ray of hope
Flickers in the sky
A tiny star
Lights up way up high
All across the land
Dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass
When a Child is born

A silent wish
Sails the seven seas
The winds of change
Whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt
Crumble dust and torn
This comes to pass
When the Child is born

The rosy view
Settles all around
You got the feel
You're on solid ground
For a spell or two
No one seems forlorn
This comes to pass
When a Child is born

And all this happens
Because the world is waiting
Waiting for one Child
Black?
White?
Yellow?
No one knows

But this Child will grow up
And turn tears to laughter
Hate to love
War to peace
And everyone to everyone's neighbor
And misery and suffering
Will be words to be forgotten
Forever

For a spell or two
No one seems forlorn
This comes to pass
When a Child is born

It's all a dream
And illusion now
It must come true
Sometime soon somehow
And all across the land
Dawns a brand new morn
This comes to pass
When a Child is born

This comes to pass
When a Child is born

This comes to pass
When a Child is born

Waiting for one Child
This comes to pass
When a Child is born
This comes to pass
When a Child is born
This comes to pass
