In your darkest hour
 In your time of need

 Oh we need the children
 To teach the world
 To carry on
 We need the children
 To live in peace
 Til fear is gone

 We're the hope of all people
 We shine the light
 We need the children

 We live in a world
 Where the love has been thrown away
 We can help one another
 By living each day for a better day

 In our brightest hour
 In our time of hope

 Oh we need the children
 To teach the world
 To carry on
 We need the children
 To live in peace
 Til fear is gone

 We're the hope of all people
 We shine the light
 We need the children

 Together we can build a place
 Of love and peace and happiness
 We can save the human race
 We'll shine through darkness

 Oh we need the children
 To teach the world
 To carry on
 We need the children
 To live in peace
 Til fear is gone
