This One's For The Children
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
This a very serious message, so all of you, please, listen
There are some people living in this world
They have no food to eat
They have no place to go
But we all are God's children
We have to learn to love one another
Just remember they could be us
Remember we all are brothers
I'm not tryin' to darken up your day
But help others in need
Show them there's a better way
This one's for the children
The children of the world
This one's for the children
May God keep them in his world
Many people are happy
And many people are sad
Some people have many things
That others can only wish they had
So for the sake of the children
Show them love's the only way to go
'Cause they're our tomorrow
And people they've got to know
I'm not tryin' to darken up your day
But help others in need
And show them there's a better way
This ones for the children
The children of the world
This one's for the children
May God keep them in his world
This one's, for the children
Only for the children
The children of the world
This one's, for the children
This one's, for the children
Many people are happy
Many people are sad
This one's for the children of the world
The children of the world
