One day I'd like to open my eyes to understanding
And see a world of equals where love is all-commanding
I'd like to feel a freedom
Admire the perfect view
I hope for this but until then
I'll live my life for you
Some day I'd like to listen to peaceful conversation
And hear my children's voices go sharing with the nation
I'd like to see them living
In comfort like you knew
I hope for this but until then
I'll spend my life indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
One day I'd like to thank you for working for the people
Whose futures are dependent on words beyond the steeple
Your actions are decisive
So promise you'll be true
We hope for this but until then
We'll spend our lives indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
We hope for this but until then
We'll spend our lives indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
Indebted to you
