When a Child Is Born

When a Child Is Born - Boney M.

A ray of hope flitters in the sky

A tiny star lights up way up high

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A silent wish sails the seven seas

The winds have changed whisper in the trees

And the walls of doubt crumble tossed and torn

This comes to pass when a child is born

A rosy hue settles all around

You've got the feel you're on solid ground

For a spell or two no-one seems forlorn

This comes to pass when a child is born

And all of this happens

Because the world is waiting

Waiting for one child

Black white yellow no one knows

But a child that would grow up and turn tears to

Laughter

Hate to love war to peace

And everyone to everyone's neighbour

Misery and suffering would be forgotten forever

It's all a dream and illusion now

It must come true sometimes soon somehow

All across the land dawns a brand new morn

This comes to pass when a child is born
