From the recording Let The Children Sing
Lyrics
Let the Children Sing, Let the Children Sing
A song their parents never knew
A song about living, loving and forgiving
Making all the dreams in the world come true
Let the children play, let the children play
In the place where their parents fired guns
For the anguish of a nation brought down through generations
Can only be healed when the fighting is done.
Let the children sleep, let the children sleep
And grow in the peace of a fruitful land
Where hunger and fear have all disappeared
With all of the people in God's loving hand
All of the people in God's loving hand
