When I have a look around
There’s too much betrayal
People are just coming by
With every chance to fail

(That’s how it is) They are on their own
Taking care of the business
When the crime is going on
There is always no witness

We are the children of the world
We are united and we hold
We come as the one
And under one sky

We are the children of the world
We come together with the hope
With head never down
And no fear to die
Just the eyes will never lie

Our hearts are singing
Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey
We are one religion when we are forlorn
Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey
And no matter what skin colour you are born

That’s now it’s been a lot again
I feel alone in the crowd
And the word we know as love
Should be said so aloud

We are the children of the world
We are united and we hold
We come as the one
And under one sky

We are the children of the world
We come together with the hope
With head never down
And no fear to die
Just the eyes will never lie

Our hearts are singing
Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey
We are one religion when we are forlorn
Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey
And no matter what skin colour you are born

(Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey)
We are one religion, this is our word
Hou-wha, hou-wha, hey-ya, hey-ya-hey
And let’s love each other, we’re the children of the world
