Where Are All the Flower Children

WHERE ARE ALL THE FLOWER CHILDREN
Now it’s time to look at yourselves open your heart and mind
Look into the eyes of man to see what you can find
Don’t judge a book by it’s cover a person by the color of their skin
Open your mind and take some time and then we’re all going
to win
(CHORUS)
Where are all the flower children who wanted peace and love
Do they just cry and bow their heads praying for grace from above
Or do they just sit back and dream about the way it was back then
Where are all the flower children who wanted peace and love
(VERSE 2)
What the world needs now more than anything is faith and trust
The way the nation is going right now we’re all going back to dust
Peaceful people are hard to find people seem to put us down
But the evil people will change their minds when Jesus comes around
(CHORUS)
(VERSE 3)
Now it’s time to get together and rise above it all
Use a lot of prayer and trust and don’t let the nation fall
All it takes is thinking to yourself here’s what I’ve got to do
Put a little trust in your fellow man and they might put some trust in you
(CHORUS)
