LYRICS:
You’ve made me see
That life is still around here living,
That in the wind somewhere,
A child may be singing.
Please speak to me, Earth.
Tell me that I can be.
Of all the things that God has made,
He’s just as proud of me.

Let one child see.

You’ve made me see
That from the darkness may come learning.
That in the night somewhere
A life fire may be burning.
Please speak to me, Earth.
Tell me that I can be.
Of all the things my God has made,
She’s just as proud of me.

And should someone ask,
“Is there love here?”
I’ll say that it shone through the rain.
And if they should ask about giving,
I’ll look through my memories and see
Someone who got so much from living
And gave it all day by day to me.

Let one child see.

You’ve made me see
That lives are still around here living,
That on these streets somewhere
My own child may be praying.
Please speak to me, Earth.
Tell me that I can be.

Is Is this a place where I’ll find grace,
And stumbling blocks become the rocks
On which my on which my life can stand?
Now hear me, God!
As you’ve shown me,
Please let just one child see!

Let one child see.
