Ours the future hold close For a time will come Deep in your heart there’s a river that flows All the way to Kingdom come Through the sandstorms where the high wind blows A desert road does bloom Please help me… Give the young a chance Lead them in the dance My people Give the young a chance To change their circumstance And so… And so… It’s written: As the moon shall turn the tides And as the stars shall light your ride Don’t listen to the words of fools The young I know they are jewels Deeds I’ve done what I’ve become Treasures I will find Nourishment I do receive Can’t help but believe The road is long I shall stay strong Please hear my song Help me… Give the young a chance Lead them in the dance My brothers Give the young a chance Lead them in the dance My sisters Give the young a chance To change their circumstance And so… And so… It’s written: As the moon shall turn the tides And as the stars shall light your ride Don’t listen to the words of fools The young I know they are jewels Take me to gardens where Birds will sing lullabies Find me in the shade of trees Through gentle breeze Sweet scents filled the air… Give the young a chance Lead them in the dance My people Give the young a chance To change their circumstance And so… And so… It’s written: As the moon shall turn the tides And as the stars shall light your ride Don’t listen to the words of fools The young I know they are jewels Words: Ian Brown Music: Sami Yusuf Produced by Sami Yusuf
