Lyrics

[Verse 1]
All babies together, everyone a seed
Half of us are satisfied, half of us in need
Love's bountiful in us, tarnished by our greed
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?
When will there be a harvest for the world?
[Verse 2]
A nation planted, so concerned with gain
As the seasons come and go, greater grows the pain
Far too many feelin' the strain
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?
For the world, when will there be the harvest?
[Verse 3]
Gather every man, gather every woman
Celebrate your lives, give thanks for your children
Gather everyone, gather all together
Overlooking none, hopin' life gets better for the world
For the world, for the world
[Verse 4]
Dress me up for battle, all I want is peace
Those of us who pay the price come home with the least
Nation after nation, turnin' into beast
Oh, when will there be a harvest for the world?
[Verse 5]
(Harvest for the world) When will there be
(Harvest for the world) A harvest?
(Harvest for the world) When will there be
(Harvest for the world) A harvest for the world?
For the world, when will there be a harvest?
