You know, these days with everyone talking about ecology
And too many people on the earth
And how everybody should limit the amount of children they have
I think folks forget, there's a way to enlarge upon your family
And at the same time help mankind out of some of his difficulty
How? Well, it's easy, really
Simply by opening your home and your heart
To one of the thousands of children in the world today
Who have no real place they're in yet
Kids of every nationality
Kids of every color and every creed
With a different personality but a common need
A child is waiting for you, somewhere
A child is waiting, and that child has so much love to share
A life that starts the very first day you open your hearts
The very first time you open your arms and care
A child is praying somewhere tonight
A child is praying with all its might
For you to hear this song, its lonely heart cries
And open your eyes
Open your eyes so that you can see
Little arms stretching out, pleading take me about
I need hope, I need you to need me
A child is waiting for you somewhere
Somewhere in this world, there is a child that is waiting for you
With so very much love to share
To share in the joy that will come when two hearts become one
Wait no more, lonely child, I'll be there
Wait no more, lonely child, I do care
Wait no more, lonely child, I'll be there
Wait no more, my beautiful child, I do care
A Child Is Waiting was written by Joe Hinton & Patti Jerome.
