Lyrics
We'll find joy in the mornin'
Joy in the mornin'
Joy in the mornin'
in the mornin' we'll find joy.
We find hope in our children
Hope in our children
Hope in our children
In our children we find hope
We find strength in each other
Strength in each other
Strength in each other
In each other, we find strength
There is love all around us
Love all around us
Love all around us
All around us there is love.
