Make More Sound

I remember when I was younger
 I saw the pictures on tv
 Of the children who were my age
 Who had to live their lives in fear
 I sang the peace songs
 With the hopeful ones
 We believed the world would change and all'd be free
 It was a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith was strong
 And if we'd gather round
 We could make more sound
 Now I'm older, maybe wiser
 Maybe more a cynic than before
 But I still long for a new day
 Let us pray with many millions strong
 We'll sing the peace songs
 With the hopeful ones
 Let us still believe the world will be as one
 It's a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith is strong
 And if we gather round
 We can make more sound
 It's a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith is strong
 And if we gather round
 We can make more sound
 Be brave, be bold
 And let the truth be told
 Pass the message on
 It's a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith is strong
 And if we gather round
 We can make more sound
 It's a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith is strong
 And if we gather round
 We can make more sound
 It's a shout in the distance
 But it echoes on
 Like a drop in the ocean
 But the faith is strong
 And if we gather round
 We can make more sound
