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 pa**
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 pa**
When a child is born
A rosy hue settles all around
You got the feel
You're on solid ground
For a spell of two no one seems forlorn
This comes to pa**
When a child is born
(and all of this happens
Because the world is waiting
Waiting for on child
Black, white, yellow
No one knows
But a child that'll 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, an illusion now
It must come true
Sometime soon somehow
All across the land
Dawns a brand-new morn
This comes to pa**
When a child is born
