Lyrics[]

All babies together

Everyone a seed

Half of us are satisfied

Half of us in need



Love’s bountiful in us

Tarnished by our greed

Oh, when will there be

A harvest for the world



Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Hey



A nation planted

So concerned with gain

As the seasons come and go

Greater grows the pain



And far too many

Feelin’ the strain

Oh, when will there be

A harvest for the world



Yeah, yeah



Gather every man

Gather every woman

Celebrate your lives

Give thanks for your children (No)



Gather everyone (Gather everyone)

Gather all together (Gather all together)

Overlookin’ none (Overlookin’ none)

Hopin’ life gets better for the world



Yeah, yeah, yeah

Oh



Dress me up for battle

When all I want is peace

Those of us who pay the price

Come home with the least



And nation after nation

Turnin’ into beasts

Oh, when will there be

A harvest for the world



Yeah, hey

When will there be

I wanna know now, now

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be {Harvest for the world}

When will there be {Harvest for the world}

Everybody {Harvest for the world}

Oh, talkin’ bout the children {Harvest for the world}

When will there be a harvest {Harvest for the world}

When will there be {Harvest for the world}
