A Better Way

There’s a voice deep within that is rising to sing
Giving life to the song that we share
There’s a choice that’s within, in each heart it begins
That invites us to love and to care.
There’s a road that we take with each friend that we make
It’s a road that can last all life long
And though windy the bends, we are loyal to the end
In each heart we will carry our song.

Who’ll take my hand
Who’ll take a stand
To give each one a chance, in life’s special dance
Where no-one is lost on the way
Who’ll take my hand
Who’ll take a stand
To discover a world where hurt is unheard
And we’ll find ………….. a better way.

There’s a heart still unknown, sometimes lost and alone
That we’ll search for and seek out this day
There’s a seed that is sown, with our help it will grow
Giving shelter to all far from home.
Where every heart is equal and every heart is free
Where every voice is cherished
And every heart knows peace ……
 
Who’ll take my hand
Who’ll take a stand
To give each one a chance in life’s special dance
Where no one is lost on the way
Who’ll take my hand
Who’ll take a stand
To discover a world where hate is unheard
And we’ll find …….. a better way.
