One Voice — BILLY GILMAN

Some kids have it some kids don't And some of us are wondering why And mom won't watch the news at night There's too much stuff that's making her cry

We need some help Down here on earth A thousand prayers A million words

But one voice was heard A house, a yard, a neighborhood Where you could ride your new bike to school A kind of world where mom and dad Still believe the golden rule Life's not that simple Down here on earth A thousand prayers A million words

But one voice was heard One voice, one simple word Hearts know what to say One dream can change the world Keep believing, till you find your way Yesterday while walking home I saw some kid on Newberry Road He pulled a pistol from his bag

And tossed it in the river below Thanks for the help Down here on earth A thousand prayers A millions words

But one voice was heard One voice was heard One voice was heard
