Lyrics
FOR ALL THE WORLD'S CHILDREN
© 1997 D.A. Marmaluk-Hajioannou
For all the world's children
Here's a song and a prayer
That you'll reach out for love
And it will always be there
That you'll rise like the wind
And shine like the stars
And that you'll always remember
How special you are
That you'll always find friendship
And folks who are kind
Who can share your joys with you
And strengthen your mind
And that your home will be a place
From which the best journeys start
And that you'll fly in your lifetime
On wings of the heart
For all the world's children
I wish justice and peace
And a world that respects you
And your dignity
So you can rise like the moon
And shine your light far...
And always remember
How special you are
