Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Every  life, every  beating heart
 Has  a searching soul inside
 Ever  needing, ever seeking out
 The  meaning to life
 I  refuse to believe  that we're only here  to live and die
 In  the futile days of a  faithless haze
 Never  asking why,  why would I
 When  I've felt  the hand  of eternity
 It's  a legacy  I will  leave, I want to leave
 For  the children of the world
 Every  single little boy and girl
 Heaven  plants a special seed
 And  we must have  faith for these
 Second verse:
 I  will stand for  the truth I've seen
 So  the truth is seen in me
 I  will give from the  source of love
 So  all that I believe  is handed down
 For  the road that's  yet to be  travelled on
 By  the ones  who will carry  on, I'll carry on
 For  the children of the world
 Every  single little boy and girl
 Heaven  plants a special seed
 And  we must have faith for these
 Red  and yellow, black and white
 They  are precious in the Father's eyes
 Like  the Father may we see
 That  they have  a destiny, yeah
 And  give them  the light  of love to lead
 Through  the  darkness around  us now
 To  a place  where hope  is found
