When the sun sweeps over the ocean  In the first few hours of dawn  In the silver waving dancing  Of a new day being born  Don’t it make you feel like living  Don’t it make you feel brand new  Like the sun is holding out a hand  And giving it to you  There are times of contemplation  When you’re living in the grey  And darkness rides across the land  And steals away the day  When you hide among the shadows  When you whisper in the wind  When your heart seems closed forever  To the company of friends  When our time is come around, and all is passed and gone  Let us hope that we can say we stood as one  I knew a man who carried  All the burdens of the world  And when he found the answer  The man had grown too old  For he never saw the flowers  Or felt his passion running wild  Or the innocence of laughing  And playing with a child  When our time is come around, and all is passed and gone  Let us hope that we can say we stood as one  And one day we’ll remember  How the days have passed and gone  And all the roads we’ve travelled  And the places left behind  There are those who still find favour  And some whose memory is lost  And then we’ll count our blessings  And what the journey cost    When our time is come around, and all is passed and gone  Let us hope that we can say we stood as one  When our time is come around, and all is passed and gone  Let us hope that we can say we stood as one We stood as one We stood as one We stood as one
