Lyrics:

I remember when I was younger
I saw the pictures on TV
Of the children who were my age
Who had to live their lives in fear
I sang the peace songs with the hopeful ones
We believed the World would change and all would be free
It was a shout in the distance
But it echoes on
Like a drop in the ocean but the faith was strong
And if we'd gather around
We could make more sound
Now I am older, maybe wiser
Maybe more a cynic than before
But I still long for the new day
Let us pray with many millions strong
We will sing the peace songs
With rhe hopeful ones
Let us still believe the world will be as one
It is a shout in the distance
But it echoes on
Like a drop in the ocean but the faith is strong
And if we'd gather around
We can make more sound (2X)
Be brave be bold
And let the truth be told
Pass the message on
It is a shout in the distance
But it echoes on
Like a drop in the ocean but the faith is strong
And if we'd gather around
We can make more sound (3X)
