Karen Knowles - When A Child Is Born Lyrics

Ah-ah-ah-ahh ...

A ray of hope
Flickers in the sky
A tiny star
Lights up way up high
All across the land
Dawns a brand new morn'
This comes to pass
When a child is born

A silent wish
Sails the seven seas
The winds of change
Whisper in the trees
And the walls of doubt
Crumble, tossed and torn
This comes to pass
When a child is born

A rosey hue
Settles all around
You've got the feel
You're on solid ground
For a spell or two
No one seems forlorn
This comes to pass
When a child is born

And all of this happens because the world is waiting,
waiting for one child, black, white, yellow - no-one knows.
But a child that'll grow up and turn tears to laughter, hate to love,
war to peace, and everyone to everyone's neighbour and misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten forever

It's all a dream
And illusion now
It must come true
Sometime soon, somehow
All across the land
Dawns a brand new morn'
This comes to pass
When - a child - i-is born...
