The Childrens Song
Arise all of those children
Those that sing their song,
The tune of youth just as young
Clearly knowing right from wrong.
Sing along in sweet harmony
The melody will pull at your soul,
Taking your senses to a higher place
Making warm the hearts that are so cold.
A baby's sigh, a teenagers scowl
The young man's grimace and smile,
Each action causing a reaction
Bringing hope to finish the golden mile.
So for those children we sing their song
Travel with them side by side,
And when it is time for us to leave
Upon our faces will be a smile so wide.
