lyrics
Many children walk the ground
Some are lost, some are found
Those who flourish find the sun
Those who can't have not begun
Seeds are scattered on the earth
Planted for a springtime birth
Roots begin a downward coil
Searching through the fertile soil
Some will send up tender shoots
Grounded by their healthy roots
Others simply disappear
As if they were never here
Many children walk the ground
Some are lost, some are found
Those who flourish find the sun
Those who can't have not begun
Like the seeds that disappear
Some children are never here
