Born with heaven in their eyes God sent, innocent, the promise of life Born into this mess we've made Holding the future and hope of better days 'Cause there is nothing more beautiful and wild Than the dreams that grow in the heart of every child
Chorus: They are the roses (they are) They are the lights that shine (they are) They are the waves that roll in on the ocean tide They are angels (they are) They are souls in flight (they are) They are the hope that everything's gonna be all right They are the roses (they are, they are)
Imagine a place Filled with happy sounds of playgrounds where every child is safe (where every child is safe) Where people join hands Pray our children will all have a chance In every family, in every tribe, in every town We're the keepers of this garden and we can't let them down
Repeat Chorus
Oh they are the roses (they are) They are our children (they are our children) They are the waves that roll in on the ocean tide They are our future (they are our future, they are) They are our doctors (they ) They are our preachers, They are our teachers Let's not forget them Have compassion on our children (everything's gonna be all right)
They are
