Daytime comes
Bringing the lights
Giving the sun
To natures earth

Beautiful songs
And a bluebird sings
And a baby's crying
It's a brand new birth
It's a brand new birth

And the little girl's smile
And the little boy's smile
And the the woman smiled
'Cause the man had smiled
And the great big world
Was smiling down on them

Nightime comes
Heavens curtains drawn
Stars shine bright
Way up above

Children pray
And the workers rest
Peace and quiet
Oh it's people in love
Yes people in love

And the little girl's laughs
And the little boy's laughs
And the the woman laughed
'Cause the man was laughing
And the great big world
Was smiling down on them

A distant land
A fearsome fight
Soldiers praying
Praying for peace

Suffering pain
And giving their lives
For man's greed
Oh God make it cease
God please make it cease

And the little girl cried
When the little boy cried
And the the woman cried
'Cause the man was crying
And the strengthened crowd
Was crying down on them.
