Seize upon the day, you came into this world Mother's kiss in mother's love Now reach out your hands and step out into the world Mother's hug in mother's love
Can we come to find a way, to stop the tears to shed Every time we look away, the world hangs by the thread Longing for the tender touch that brought us to this day Can we still find love tomorrow and today
Your life in your hands, you can be the one to save Melt away the fears for the ones you crave My life in my hands, I'll be the one to bring A bight new harmony for all the world to sing
To the crying earth, soiled by our own hands Mother's kiss in mother's love Now satisfy the thirst, bring water to the land Mother's hug in mother's love
In a world without compassion, where people no longer care Longing for pure affection, the truth is no longer there Let us realize where we are headed for Try to find a way to be free, just like the day we were born
Your life in your hands, stand up and use those hands To hold the one you love, caress with all your heart My life in my hands, I'll give a helping hand Let this harmony bring love into your heart
Your life in your hands, you can be the one to save Melt away the fears for the ones you crave My life in my hands, I'll be the one to bring A bight new harmony for all the world to sing
Your life in your hands, stand up and use those hands To hold the one you love, caress with all your heart My life in my hands, I'll give a helping hand Let this harmony bring love into your heart
Let the world believe the future lies in our hands
