Listen to the Children
by Phillip Sandifer, Texas Boys' Choir

Album: On My Way

Let's think upon the yesterdays
And let them remind us
Let them remind
How simple answers
Were so hard to find
So hard to find
No one seems to have the time

And imagine as children
Feel all the needs that they feel
For the want of assurance
That their hopes and their dreams
Will be given the chance to be real

And let's listen to the children
To the dreams that they dream of
Learn of the innocent
And the way that they love
Save a moment to share in their view
Listen to the children
And know that they're listening to you

They're so often forgotten
By a world that says, "silence, child"
Hear as I speak
And know it's you who is weak
Oh, but lend them your ears
Build a bridge to their islands
Seek of them wisdom
As you teach them to seek

And imagine as children
Feel all the needs that they feel
For the want of assurance
That their hopes and their dreams
Will be given the chance to be real

And let's listen to the children
To the dreams that they dream of
Learn of the innocent
And the way that they love
Save a moment to share in their view
Listen to the children
Listen to the children
And know that they're listening to you
