Children Of The Light - Lyrics

Children of the Light, ohh
Children of the Light, ohh

Michael:
People work and people talk
And think that they're alive
But ask them what their life's about
They're quick to run and hide

People laugh and people cry
But never realize
That all the world's tomorrows lay in what they feel inside

So, take my hand
And walk in the sunshine
Take my hand, from out of the night

We can stand, despite all of the dark lies
And we can build a world that is right
We can be the children of the light

Jackson 5:
Children of the light

Michael:
Walk together all of my brothers
Walk together all of my sisters
Walk forever all of my children
Children smile

The time has come for everyone
To stop and look around
To see just where we started from
And wonder where we're bound

The ship we're on has lost its way
.....
.....
.....

So, take my hand
And walk in the sunshine
Take my hand, from out of the night
We can stand, despite all of the dark lies
And we can build a world that is right
We can be the children of the light

Everybody!

Take my hand
And walk in the sunshine
Take my hand, from out of the night
We can stand, despite all of the dark lies
And we can build a world that is right
We can be the children of the light
