Lyrics
The Earth Is In Our Care (Song Lyrics)
Verse 1
The future of our planet
Is a story to be told
Scientists hold the key
To changes that are bold
Electric cars with batteries
Protect the air we breath
Solar panes will heat our homes
Sun's power's all we need.
Refrain
Stand up, reach out
Together we are strong
Let us use our voices
Singing in one song
Stand up, reach out
To people everywhere
Together we can do our part
For the Earth that's in our care
Verse 2
The land is our legacy
Preserved and specially shared
It's our job to nurture it
It's sacred for our air
When we walk upon it
Where acorns dress the ground
We'll try to be more frugal
And leave more than we found
Refrain
Stand up, reach out
Together we are strong
Let us use our voices
Singing in one song
Stand up, reach out
To people everywhere
Together we can do our part
For the Earth that's in our care
Verse 3
Wind energy converters
Fill our homes with light
Reducing need for fossil fuel
Helps make our future bright
Revitalizing neighborhoods
Or living off the land
Mindful of what's tossed away
Will make our future grand.
Refrain
Stand up, reach out
Together we are strong
Let us use our voices
Singing in one song
Stand up, reach out
To people everywhere
Together we can do our part
For the Earth that's in our care
This precious Earth is in our care.
