One By One


One by one
We can start to make things right
by winning
just one fight

One by one
we can make a difference
by just giving up a knife or a gun

One by one
We can give hope
and tie another knot in the love rope
For each knot, someone is saved
With each knot, the rope is pulled tighter
So it's cannot be undone

One by one
We can make someones day brighter
by by giving a few smiles and hugs
and steering them away ffrom hate and drugs

One by one, we can be there
to show how much we care
One by one, we can learn to love
and teach it to each other
so we can give that gift of love to another

One by one, we can teach lolerance
to get rid of violence
One by one, we can break the silence
All together
We can be strong
and stay strong, always and forever
So love with stay around long

If we just work together, one by one
more people will come
They will see the light
and want to help in the fight

One by one, we can do our part
Just by giving a little of our heart
Helping when we see the need
By lending that extra hand
we have done a good deed
Others will follow
One by one
