When The Children Cry

Little child

Dry your crying eyes

How can I explain

The fear you feel inside

'Cause you were born

Into this evil world

Where man is killing man

And no one knows just why



What have we become

Just look what we have done

All that we destroyed

You must build again



When the children cry

Let them know we tried

'Cause when the children sing

Then the new world begins



Little child

You must show the way

To a better day

For all the young

'Cause you were born

For the world to see

That we all can live

With love and peace



No more presidents

And all the wars will end

One united world under God



When the children cry

Let them know we tried

'Cause when the children sing

Then the new world begins



What have we become

Just look what we have done

All that we destroyed

You must build again



No more presidents

And all the wars will end

One united world under God



When the children cry

Let them know we tried

'Cause when the children sing

The new world begins



What have we become

Just look what we have done

All that we destroyed

You must build again



No more presidents

And all the wars will end

One united world under God



When the children cry

Let them know we tried

'Cause when the children fight

Let them know it ain't right

When the children pray

Let them know the way

'Cause when the children sing

Then the new world begins
