Let's not forget this place
Let's not neglect the our race
Let unity become
Life on earth be oneSo let me take your hand
We are but grains of sand
Born through the winds of time
Given a special signSo let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, peopleEeyeah, oh, eayeh, oh, eayeh
(And the world is turning)
Oh, by, yah to a different beatEayeh, 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 mineSo let's take a stand
And look around us now, people oh, people oh peopleI'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 youI'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 youHow far we've come and how far to go
Rain does not fall on one roof alone
(To a different beat)
