When rain blocks out the sunshine
And dampens down the day
A rainbow shows its colours
And brightens up the grey
The night sky so foreboding
Shadowy and dark
The moon and stars start playing
Causing illuminating sparks
A young family on the breadline
Trying to make ends meet
Dad has bought some sweets home
Just to give them a little treat
The little boy with cancer
Who is struggling to survive
His parents treasure every day
Their precious son is alive
A woman longing for a baby
Who has tried for so many years
Then her prayers are answered
As the thin blue line appears
Wars and terror divide us
We need unity, hope and faith
Together, we can make a difference
To make this world a better place
