This is a very serious message so all of you please listen.

There are some people living in this world

They have no food to eat

They have no place to go

But we all are God's children

We've got to learn to love one another

Just remember, they could be us

Remember, we all are brothers



I'm not trying to darken up your day

But help others in need

And show them there's a better way



This one's for the children

The children of the world

This one's for the children

May God keep them in His throne



Many people are happy

And many people are sad

Some people have many things

That others can only wish they had

So for the sake of the children

Show them love's the only way to go

'Cause they are tomorrow and people, they've got to know



I'm not trying to darken up your day

But help others in need

And show them there's a better way



This one's for the children

The children of the world

This one's for the children

May God keep them in His throne



This one's for the children

The children of the world

This one's for the children

May God keep them in His throne
