When A Child Is Born

Hmmm
Hmmm
Hmmm
...
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 past
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 tost and torn
This comes to pass
When a child is born
A rosy hue
Settles all around
You've got the feel
You're on solid ground
For a spell of two
No one seems forlorn
This comes to past
When a child is born

And all of this happens
Because the world is waiting
Waiting for one child
Black white yellow
No one knows
But a 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

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