lyrics

Children in the Garden

Today I lay beside my open window
warm sun and springtime breezes blow
I hear the little shrieks of joy and laughter
Coming from the courtyard below

Chor.
Children playing in the garden
children playing in a magic garden
we are all but children in the garden
children playing in a magic garden

2.
we are astronauts and engineers,
poets, politicians, science pioneers.
we are biologists, theologists,
architects, alchemists,
searching every part of the sphere

Chor.

3.
We have a little time in the sun
but we will be all gone when earth is done
Let us celebrate our joy and our love
beautiful as we are- its enough.

Chor
