Lyrics
Sometimes A Child
by Noreen Inglesi
VERSE
(First time without accompaniment)
Sometimes a child says a prayer
To make his home safe and warm
Sometimes that prayer,
That prayer, is answered.
If you look in his eyes
ItÃ?Â?s no surprise
That a child gleams of our future.
Sometimes a child says a prayer
To make his home safe and warm
Sometimes that prayer,
That prayer, is answered.
If you look in his eyes
It's no surprise
That a child gleams of our future.
REFRAIN
There's a place called home for everyone
Where wildflowers bloom in the spring
And the robins can sing
While a child glides on his swing
This is our prayer for Humanity
Where the robins can sing
While a child glides on his swing
Hear the Cries of Humanity.
Heed the call for Humanity.
