Listen to the Children
Dennis Yerry
I’m standing here today
To say how afraid I am
That the world may not be here tomorrow
Hear the voices in the wind
The Eagle is calling
I see too much pain and too much sorrow
Please Listen to the Children
Can’t you hear what we are saying
We hear the eagle calling can’t we change the world
I may never hear the song of a wolf
As she cries to gather up her children
I’ve heard the raven’s call warning me today
That we need to find a new tomorrow
Please Listen to the Children
Try to hear what we are saying
We need a new tomorrow can’t we change the world
NATIVE FLUTE INTERLUDE
Please Listen to the Children
Try to hear what we are saying
We hear the eagle calling
Can’t you hear the rain?
Can’t you hear the trees?
Can’t you hear the grass?
Can’t we live in peace?
