A DIFFERENT BEAT

African Voices

Let's not forget this place
Let's not neglect our race
Let unity become
Life on Earth be one

So let me take your hand
We are but grains of sand
Born through the winds of time
Given a special sign

So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people

CHORUS
Eeyea-oh, Eyea-oh, Eyea-oh, by-yer
To A differnet beat
Eeyea-oh, Eyea-oh, Eyea-oh, by-yer

Humanity's lost face
Let's understand it's grace
Each day one at a time
Each life including mine

So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
So let's take a stand
And look around us now, people
Oh people, Oh people

CHORUS

I've seen the rain fall in Africa
I've touched the snow of Alaska
(oh tell me now)
I've felt the mist of niagara
Now I believe in you

Repeat Chorus twice

How far we've come and how far to go
Rain does not fall on one roof alone
