The Greatest Song Ever Sung

A single voice that we can't divide Cross the water on a wooden chord Singing peace to a world ignored Oh let the rhythm travel round the globe Wrapped in music like a healing robe One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung Old strings ringing in the desert dust Where iron fades and the people trust A child smiles as the drums begin Letting the light and the healing in Oh let the rhythm travel round the globe Wrapped in music like a healing robe One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung Hear the rhythm play Brighter every day From Kingston town to the delta stream We share the weight of a common dream Oh let the rhythm travel round the globe Wrapped in music like a healing robe One heartbeat in a different tongue The greatest song that's ever sung
