Just One Voice (c) Rick Goggin/Joice Marie 2007
It's a fragile world
Still the babies sleep
and I pray to the lord
their souls to keep
if they should die
before they wake
maybe it's your soul
the lord will take
just one voice
can change an opinion
just one voice
can speak the truth
just one voice
can make a difference
just one heart
can grow and bear fruit
and the bullets fly
in a war without gain
a pregnant woman
gets caught in the way
yeah moma lived
but the baby died
the rest of us
are left to wonder why
just one voice
can educate a nation
just one voice
can share their faith
just one voice
can radiate passion
just one heart
can love with grace
street gangs war
and bombers circle
while most of us are
divided down the middle
lack of truth
breeds fear and suspicion
and terror reigns
in the name of religion
it's a major mess
confused by race
money and corruption
in government's place
a hope for the future
young boys and girls
their trust and love
will change the world
one more day fading to night
one more parent nuturing life
and the soft heartbeat as a baby sleeps
