Lyrics
FOR THE CHILDREN
Take a good look around you
Have a look for yourself (self)
Open your eyes
See what the world has to hide
And puts away on a shelf
If you listened very closely
You can hear the cries of a child
A hungry child, a child in need
It?s time we opened our eyes
We?ve got to do it for the children
We?ve got to hold out a hand
We?ve go to open our hearts
Do it for the children
Their future won?t stand a chance
If we don?t give them a start
Do it for a child
Do it for a child
In a world so plentiful
It don?t seem right (right)
A child should be with out
The basics of life
If we all just give a little
We can help to make things right
To build a world with out hunger
And wars things of the past
We?ve got to do it for the children
We?ve got to hold out a hand
We?ve go to open our hearts
Do it for the children
Their future won?t stand a chance
If we don?t give them a start
Do it for the children
We?ve got to hold out a hand
We?ve go to open our hearts
Do it for the children
Their future won?t stand a chance
If we don?t give them a start
How can we ignore
The most precious seed of life
After all their humans to
It?s Time we realize
We?ve got to do it for the children
We?ve got to hold out a hand
We?ve go to open our hearts
Do it for the children
Their future won?t stand a chance
If we don?t give them a start
Do it for the children
We?ve got to hold out a hand
We?ve go to open our hearts
Do it for the children
Their future won?t stand a chance
If we don?t give them a start
Do it for a child
Do it for a child
