Corrinne May - Beautiful Seed lyrics

I can fill the darkness with just one flash of light Break the the silence with just one word Warm the fire-started revolution One that can save the world On the steps of Washington sprinkled like confetti Thousands of people sing, "We shall overcome" The preacher shouts, "Let freedom ring" He gave his life for what he believed You can be a witness, you can be a prophet You can make the whole world believe Break the strongest fortress, change the way the world thinks You can build a bridge where foes can meet Hope for the future, shout it, don't whisper 'cos dreams are what we make them to be There is hope in every heartbeat, tiny as it seems You're a beautiful seed She's a pastor's daughter, she's only sixteen But her heart and her belly are breaking at the seams Her boyfriend blames her, he wants to pay For the doctor to wash it away As she lays in the hospital, a Christmas choir is singing About a child in a manger fragile and small "Unto us is born a Savior", she looks at her baby and cries As she sings him a lullaby You can be a witness, you can be a prophet You can make the whole world believe Break the strongest fortress, change the way the world thinks You can build a bridge where foes can meet Hope for the future, for the tiniest whisper Dreams are what we make them to be There is hope in every heartbeat, tiny as it seems You're a beautiful seed Every hope, every power Lies in the heart of a seed that flowers Intertwined all across the land We're all seeds in the maker's hand
