one voice - billy gilman

Some kids have what some kids don't
And some of us are wondering why.
Mom won't watch the news at night
There's too much stuff that's making her cry.
We need some help
Down here on earth
A thousand prayers, a million words
But one voice was heard.
A house, a yard, a neighborhood
Where you can ride your new bike to school.
A kind of world where mom and dad
Still believe the golden rule
Life's not that simple
Down here on earth.
A thousand prayers, a million words
But one voice was heard.
One voice
One simple word
Hearts know what know what to say.
One dream
Can change the world
Keep beleiving
Till you find your way.
Yesterday while walking home
I saw some kid on Newbury Road
He had a pistol in his bag
And tossed it in the river below
Thanks for the help down here on earth
A thousand prayers, a million words
But one voice was heard
One voice was heard
One voice was heard
