Verse 1.
Do you believe in love?
Do you believe that every child should have a smile?
So show a little kindness,
and watch their tears disappear.
Do you believe in love?

Chorus 1.
Let?s sing a song, a song of joy, so the children can hear us.
Sing it loud and let them know that we care.
Ain?t it good to have this love to share?
Let?s sing, a song a song of joy, so the children can sing it.
Sing along with all the joy that they bring.
Ain?t it good to hear the children sing?

Verse 2
Do you believe in truth?
Do you believe that every child should have his youth.
Instead of, Short unhappy childhoods,
That end, Far far too soon
Do you believe in truth?

Chorus 2 & Bridge
Let?s sing a song, a song of joy, so the children can hear us.
Sing it loud and let them know that we care.
Ain?t it good to have this love to share?
Let?s sing, a song a song of joy. So all the children can sing it
Sing it loud and ask yourself what can I do,
to build the world that every child has a right to?
And if we take this song into our hearts, maybe we?ll find a way to make a start.
Key change.

Chorus 3.
Let?s sing a song, a song of joy, so the children can hear us.
Sing it loud and let them know that we care.
Ain?t it good to have this love to share?
Let?s sing, a song a song of joy. So all the children can sing it.
Sing along with all the joy that they bring.
Ain?t it good to hear the children sing?

Pause.
Do you believe in love?
