Song Lyrics, by Barbara Tremblay Cipak, Copyright. (VERSE 1) Beyond the sunset another child smiles Held in her mother’s arms for a while Cuddled up with faith her guiding force She prays to her God for the same things of course; For leaders to lead us down a path of peace That her baby will always have enough to eat That her neighbors get all the help they need And imprisoned minds will someday be freed (CHORUS) We sing for justice in a song The world in disarray for so long If right is someone else’s wrong then who’ll teach us how to get along With divide and conquer going strong Where have all the leaders gone? (VERSE 2) How many questions did you ask today? Do you believe what the media has to say? Did your neighbor lose his job or home? If the leaders tell him to do it alone… do you believe he should rebuild on his own? There’s no money left, sorry it’s gone Where has all the money flown? (CHORUS) We sing for justice in a song The world in disarray for so long If right is someone else’s wrong then who’ll teach us how to get along With divide and conquer going strong Where have all the leaders gone? (VERSE 3) Does money define the entire earth? How do we determine what a life is worth Who makes the call that some live and some die? A mother asks while she’s doubled over to cry “Why me, why us, why tell me why! why did my child have to die!” This pain is her prison and they still deny that wars are built on sandstone lies (BRIDGE TO CHORUS) Leaders who lead us to live in peace Who build bridges of hope without shaking their fist Who understand we must all co-exist and share the resources of this earth ‘Cause no one owned it at its birth who owns the moon? who owns the stars? is that where all the leaders are? We sing for justice in a song With the world in disarray this long and right is always someone’s wrong who’ll teach us how to get along with divide and conquer going strong Where have all the Leaders Gone? Wishing you well, Barb Find your peace and find your place in this world Smile even when it hurts Complete your lifes plan See the beauty around you, it's plentiful You'll find it in the smallest things and always remember, you are loved
