Young Mothers

Diana Ross · Anthology [1990]

Hey now, young mothers

How shall we raise our sons?

To live their lives in peace

And not take up the gun



Hey now, young mothers

What shall we teach them of?

To look for beauty in the world

And use the power of love



I believe, I believe

That love will see us through

I believe, ooh, I still believe

That love will see us through



Hey now, young mothers

Tell them what they must know

That truth should be their guiding light

Wherever they may go



Hey now, young mothers

Pray that they live in grace

And share the joy of living

With all the human race



I believe, I believe

That love will see us through

I believe, ooh, I still believe

That love will see us through



Hey now, young mothers

Cherish all your sons

For who shall put the wars to rest

If they are not the ones
