"I Have a Dream"
Lyrics by Brian Potter
Music by Wayne Green
I have a dream of how the world should be
And I'll fight from today to make it better.
For I know that I believe in you,
And my dream is your dream, too.
I have a dream that peace begins with me,
I will stand up today. -- it's now or never!
Time will show, in all the things I do,
That my dream is your dream, too.
Be a candle in the darkness,
For the people only seek the light.
I have a dream, come give your hand to me.
Till the clouds roll away, let's fight together!
You and I will see the sun break through
If my dream is your dream, too.
For I know that I believe in you,
and my dream is your dream, too.
(An alternate bridge was sung for President Ikeda in May of 2004. It goes in place of: "Be a candle in the darkness, For the people only seek the light.")
From the hillside to the ocean,
Youthful voices singing everywhere.
