When the things that you can’t hold on to Are the ones that you wish you could keep Are you really ready to pay for love If it costs you everything?
All of God’s children All of God’s children Shining underneath Shining underneath
I believe in a world that’s beyond me I believe in a world I ain’t seen Past the glass, and shotgun shacks Violent faceless racist facts I believe in a world that’s made clean
All of God’s children All of God’s children Shining underneath Shining underneath
Underneath these scars Underneath these wars Underneath the bullet holes We still don’t know who we are Just shining underneath Shining underneath
Oh, I’ve been waiting for love to give birth New life to show pain it’s worth I’ve been waiting for peace on earth Like a newborn child Oh, like a newborn child Shining underneath
Is there a well that won’t run empty? Is there a friend that can’t be bought? You’ll find them when you’re thirsty Learn the lesson that can’t be taught
All of God’s children All of God’s children Shining underneath Shining underneath
