8. When A Child Is Born

ray of hope flickers in the sky 
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 

silent wish sails the seven seas 
The winds of change whisper in the trees 
And the wall of doubt crumbles 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 
This child who will grow up 
and turn tears to laughter 
Hate to love 
War to peace 
And everyone to everyone's neighbour 
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 an 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
