First verse:

Every life, every beating heart

Has a searching soul inside

Ever needing, ever seeking out

The meaning to life

I refuse to believe that we're only here to live and die

In the futile days of a faithless haze

Never asking why, why would I

When I've felt the hand of eternity

It's a legacy I will leave, I want to leave

For the children of the world

Every single little boy and girl

Heaven plants a special seed

And we must have faith for these

Second verse:

I will stand for the truth I've seen

So the truth is seen in me

I will give from the source of love

So all that I believe is handed down

For the road that's yet to be travelled on

By the ones who will carry on, I'll carry on

For the children of the world

Every single little boy and girl

Heaven plants a special seed

And we must have faith for these

Red and yellow, black and white

They are precious in the Father's eyes

Like the Father may we see

That they have a destiny, yeah

And give them the light of love to lead

Through the darkness around us now

To a place where hope is found

Repeat Chorus:
