Lyrics:
Someday
When we are wiser
When the world’s older
When we have learned
I pray someday we may yet
Live to live and let live
Someday
Life will be fairer
Need will be rarer
And greed will not pay
God speed this bright millennium
On its way
Let it come someday
Let it come someday
One day
Come!
INTERMISSION
