about

Extraordinary lyric from Ken Jason. I'm very happy with this one. I'd love to hear it sung by a world class singer.

lyrics

When two minds have come together
and the feeling is just right
When the darkness leaves forever
and the dawn brings a new light

When the truth becomes the savior
and we walk away from lies
And we see ourselves for who we are
and lay down our disguise

CHORUS: Then I will stop my dreamin, take away my fears
I will end my anger, I will dry up all my tears

When the poor can share the bounty
and all are strong and free
When the deaf can hear the glorious sound
and blind men start to see

When men lay down their weapons
and take away the fear
and we turn our backs on prejudice
and watch it disappear

CHORUS:

Mother earth, don’t you cry
We will wake up in the by and by
One day, we’ll somehow see the light
We’ll finally find a way to set things right

When hate has been forsaken
and the words of love resound
When sleeping minds awaken
and answers then are found

When love has been begotten
and enemies become friends
When war has been forgotten
and peace has come again
