People Came Like a River

At first I saw him playing his guitar To the young who came from near and far In his eyes he had so much sadness Then he looked at me and put my pain away Then everyone just gathered all around him To hear him sing a song of hope and love Then he told them that we are all brothers Then people came like a river Then people came like a river I've been looking I've been searching for a long time For the reason of my living In this broken world Then when I found this music Reaching to my soul I found the answer To what I was looking for What are we doing to our brothers Pointing guns and using knives on each other Spreading hate and wars all around us Let his voice and music guide us Then people came like a river Children crying a sea of tears Innocence lost in this cruel city No one seems to harbour any pity Listen to his song then love will fine you Look around you to all the lonely people Trying to find a way in to this darkness And all the young living a life so pointlessly Then people came like a river Then people came like a river At first I saw him playing his guitar To the young who came from near and far In his eyes he had so much sadness Then he looked at me and put my pain away Then everyone just gathered all around him To hear him sing a song of hope and love Then he told them that we are all brothers Then people came like a river Then people came like a river
