So let me take your hand

We are but grains of sand

Born throught the winds of time

Given a special sign

So let's take a stand

and look around us now, people

So let's take a stand

and look around us now, people...

Eeyeah--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh, by--yah

To a different beat

Eayeh--oh, eayeh--oh, eayeh (and the world is turning)--oh, by yah

(to a different beat)

Humanity's lost face

Let's understand its grace

Each day one at a time

Each life including mine

So let's take a stand

and look around us now, people oh, people oh people!

CHORUS

I've seen the rain, fall in Africa

I've touched to snow of Alaska

(Oh tell me now...)

I've felt the mists of Niagara

Now I believe...

In you..

repeat CHORUS twice

How far we've come

and how far to go

rain does not fall

on one roof alone..(to a different beat)..
