The Hope One Child Can Bring Lyrics

How many innocent must die
before the sun will shine on tomorrow?
And how many tears will fall
from the ones they leave behind in sorrow?
So many people gone; so many spirits strong,
but life goes on
Teach the children what this means
'cause we are witness to these things
and strong is the hope that one child can bring

How many years will we fight
before we understand each life is sacred?
And how can we reason with those who take life
when their reasons are forged with hatred?
No room for compromise; the truth must stay alive
'cause life goes on
Teach the children what this means
'cause we are witness to these things
and strong is the hope that one child can bring
Standing together, hope is just a start.
The strength of love has always helped us
to make it through the dark
How many wars will it take
before we call the peace everlasting?
There's just time to realize; no time to wait for a sign
'cause life goes on
Teach the children what this means
'cause they are witness to these things
and strong is the hope that one child . . .
strong is the hope
Remember the hope that one child can bring
