Lyrics
What can I do in the world today
people suffer in every way
and the word is creaking like a dying tree
everybody praying don't fall on me
There never was a hammer for to fix a soul
never was a nail for to make me whole
but I am not helpless I have a choice
I can choose to use my voice
Use my voice to sing my song
sing the road is hard and long
with love in my heart I'll rejoice
I can do better I can use my voice
There's a devil in the engine and a fool at the wheel
thieves in the kitchen who'll kill and steal
who will stand and defend the weak
who will find their voice to speak
you are not helpless you have a choice
you can choose to use your voice
Use your voice to sing your song
sing the road is hard and long
with love in your heart rejoice
you can do better you can use your voice
They say no hope for a world of peace
a sweet apple growing on a sour apple tree
but a sweet song sung in harmony
make the lamb and the lion la down to sleep
we are not helpless we have a choice
we can choose to use our voice
Use our voice to sing our song
sing the road is hard and long
with love in our hearts let's rejoice
we can do better we can use our voice
