Kids Wish for the World - Lyrics

I wish we woke up gladly every single day
to count our many blessings the ones we never say
I wish we had the power to hold onto our truth
in the darkest hour it would still shine through
 
I wish no child or creature would ever be abused  (Ben)
I wish we felt our voices were always free to use  (Funmi
I wish the world was peaceful and every war would cease (Dylan
I wish we all were equal with no more poverty (Archer
I wish all sadness ended as easy as we breathe  (Niamh
I wish we loved our planet and lived in harmony  (Ammal
 
Oh oh oh oh and I wish we were happier inside
Oh oh oh and I wish we would pull together this time

I wish that every child was blessed with the best start  (Rafe
I wish that all diseases were shadows of the past  (Rebekah
I wish nobody suffered and we all lived happily  (Mateusz)
I wish that everybody had a loving family  (Martha)

I wish we woke up gladly every single day (All Sing Till End)
to count our many blessings the ones we never say
I wish we had the power to hold onto our truth
in the darkest hour it would still shine through

Oh oh oh oh and I wish we were happier inside
Oh oh oh and I wish we would pull together this time
Oh oh oh oh and I wish we were happier inside
Oh oh oh and there's nothing more to wish for
