The world's a tiny blue-green ark Afloat in darkest space. And every creature lives his time And knows his special place And each of us is Noah With a life all in our care To keep against the darkness That's flooding everywhere
We've got to walk with the lion, Soar with the eagle, Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace.
The times have made us fearful And our fears have brought the tears The loneliness and darkness Have grown bitter with the years But a light is just beyond us and the children almost see A world that we've forgotten And the world they want to be
When we walk with the lion, Soar with the eagle, Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace.
The ark is getting crowded now And each of us must know When everything is finished here There's no where else to go. The beasts are here to bless us And the faith is in their eyes That we can find the garden And see that sweet dawn rise
And we can walk with the lion, Soar with the eagle, Sing with the nightingale and live in love and peace.
We've got to walk with the lion, Soar with the eagle, Sing with the nightingale And live in love and peace.
