and I take mine with the grain of sand.
But I believe we have the power to change our direction.
And the key is right here in our hand.
If just once we could all speak one language.
Think of all the changes we could bring.
And if only for a moment we could be one voice.
Maybe we could write a song that everyone could sing.
Just give us one song - we can all sing together.
One song all the world can understand.
It's been so long since we felt that inspiration.
Lord, give us one song from your hand.
There will be those who turn against us.
So we must be strong enough to stand alone.
Oh, we could change the world forever.
If we could only learn to stand together.
Maybe just long enough to sing one song.
Just give us one song - we can all sing together.
One song all the world can understand.
It's been so long since we felt that inspiration.
Lord, give us one song, just one song, from your hand.
