Let's not forget this place
Let's not neglect our race
Let unity become
Life on earth be one
So let me take your hand
We are but grains of sand
Born through the winds of time
Given a special sign
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh,
(and the world is turning) by - yah
(to a different beat)
Humanity has lost face
Let's understand its grace
Each day one at a time
Each life including mine
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
Oh people, oh people
Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh
(and the world is turning) by - yah
(to a different beat)
Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeyay - oh
(and the world is turning) by - yah
(to a different beat)
I've seen the rain fall in Africa (africa)
I've touched to snow of Alaska (on tundra) (alaska)
I've felt the mists of Niagara (niagara)
Now I believe
In you
In you
And the world is turning
(to a different beat)
(Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeyay - oh, by - yah)
(to a different beat)
How far we've come
(Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeyay - oh, by - yah)
And how far to go
(to a different beat)
Rain does not fall
(Eeeyay - oh, eeeyay - oh, eeyay - oh, by - yah)
On one roof alone
(to a different beat)
