Once there was a man,
and he lived to sing the lion's song As he traveled on road of
hope One Love is the light,
shining over every mountain top It will lead us to the higher
ground One day every heart will beat strong against the
night Let it be done right now
Once there was a man,
and his words became a song of love And his song became the golden
dream One Love is the light, shining over everyone that believes It will
lead us to the higher ground One day every eye will see truth before the
light Let it be done right now
Some wait, so long Because our love
is strong This hard road traveled on Will lead us home,
forever
Hear the lion's song, voices cryin' like a desert wind Yeh
he's gone unto his father's land Afrika tonight, for we truly are one in our
hearts Colors woven in the golden dream
One day every eye will see
truth before the light Let it be done right now One day every voice will
speak strong against the night Let us be one right now So let it
be
We are the children of a thousand days We are the people of the
hard rain We are the children of a thousand days We are the people of the
hard rain We are the people of the hard rain
