One Child

One song can spark a moment, One flower can awaken a dream, One tree can start a forest, One bird can usher in spring. One voice can speak with wisdom, One heart can ring out true, One life can make a difference, And it only takes one child, To teach the whole world Something it never knew.

One song can spark a moment, One flower can awaken a dream, One tree can start a forest, One bird can usher in spring. One smile can begin a friendship, One handshake can lift a person’s soul, One star can guide a ship at sea, One idea can fashion a goal. One vote can change a nation, One sunbeam can brighten a dreary mood, One candle can block out darkness, One laugh will vanquish someone’s gloom. One step must start each journey, One word to start a prayer, One glimmer of hope will raise one’s spirit, One embrace will show you care. One voice can speak with wisdom, One heart can ring out true, One life can make a difference, And it only takes one child, To teach the whole world Something it never knew.
