When love shines through In a world of little solace,
There's hope honesty will prevail
Without fear of losing face.
If all children could be saved
From hunger and starvation,
There's hope they'd gain the strength
To build a stronger nation.
When all nations put down arms
And finally give up the fight,
There's hope for lasting peace
If they could only unite.
As we become a nation
That doesn't hate because of race,
There's real hope that one day
The world will be a safer place.
