In Our Hands

Like a little child I've been lots of wishing
Hoping it would make the world okay
I have wished upon a star then watched it moving farther away 'til today
Nothing comes from waiting for tomorrow
Hoping someone else will make it right
It's because of you and me
I see a future flooding with light
Oh
In our hands there's a world in our care
In our hands lies the power we share
In our hands it can grow even more than
we know when we all understand all that is
in our hands

Sometimes when I read the morning paper
Something in my heart just wants to scream
For the world a better place 'til one dying child's face makes that seem still a dream
Then I hear my children's morning laughter and I know there's still a choice that's mine
After all the blinding smoke, the fire's of tomorrow still shine
Oh
In our hands there's a world in our care
In our hands lies the power we share
In our hands it can grow even more than we know when we all understand all that is in our hands ...
... there's a world in our care
In our hands lies the power we share
In our hands it can grow even more than we know when we all understand all that is in our hands ...
In our hands (Oh)
In our hands
In our hands
