Shape The World
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.
Give, because you ought to
And love, because it's right
Live, the way that life was meant to be lived
Oh, and smile, because it makes you feel good
And laugh, so that the world gets brighter
Cry, but make it tears of joy as time goes by
Yeah, hold your hands up, and be carefree
Go and make someone's day, and let them see
That hope is still here, that hope is still near
Oh and be the change in the world that you want to see
And together we could change the course of history
Oh it's true, but only you can change you
Yeah, I want to shape the world into a place
Where freedom reigns in the human race
A world where we all get along
And work to right all that is wrong
I want to shape the world into a place
Where smiles are there from face-to-face
And safety's found in every nation
Peace is brought to all creation
Let's shape our world
But it all starts with me
Hope, no never give up
And press, when times get tough
And know, that all things are possible if you believe
Yeah shine, you gotta shine real bright
'Cause it helps to keep you going till your dreams take flight
And give all you can, from sunrise right through to the night
Yeah, yeah, yeah you gotta fight, fight to keep your head up
Have joy, in the things that go right
Search, for the things that really matter, go and explore
Oh-oh-oh dance, like you never danced before
Share, you got to give if you want more
Be free, and come sing along with me
Oh-oh-oh, I want to shape the world into a place
Where freedom reigns in the human race
A world where we all get along
And work to right all that is wrong
I want to shape the world into a place
Where smiles are there from face-to-face
And safety's found in every nation
Peace is brought to all creation
Let's shape the world into a place
Where freedom reigns in the human race
A world where we all get along
And work to right all that is wrong
I want to shape the world into a place
Where smiles are there from face-to-face
And safety's found in every nation
Peace is brought to all creation
Let's shape our world
But it all start with me
