When the world was in trouble
And it looked like there was hell to pay
Fire, fire everywhere
And the news got worse each day
People really wondered
Just how long they could hold out
God looked down from heaven above
And he began to shoutLet there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to have some funIt's so hard to keep on smiling
When people try to make you frown
But we're all in this together
So why bring one another down
You know we can't expect our problems
To grow wings and fly away
So fight the fight just as hard as you can
And when it's time for you to playLet there be music
Let it shine like the sun
Let there be music
Everybody's got to have some fun
