One Drop

It takes one drop to lift these many waters
It takes one drop to roll these many waters away
It takes one drop to lift these many waters
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves

And it takes one hand to help pull up your brother
And it takes one kind word to turn a stranger to a friend
And it takes one ear to listen to each other
Just to hear one heartbeat in rhythm again

It takes one stone to move these many mountains
It takes one spark to light the darkest hour into day
It takes one road to reach a new tomorrow
Where there's room for all on that narrow way

And it takes one drop to lift these many waters
It takes one drop to roll these many waters away
It takes one drop to lift these many waters
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves

And it takes one step before the saints go marching
It takes one march before we've got a movement marching in
It takes all kind of saints in step together
'Fore we stand in union hand in hand

And it takes one breath to make the winds start changing
It takes one change to make a world of changes 'cross the land
And it takes one world spinning altogether
Before this universe will be as planned

And it takes one drop to lift these many waters
It takes one drop to roll these many waters away
It takes one drop to lift these many waters
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves

And it takes one drop to lift these many waters
It takes one drop to roll these many waters away
It takes one drop to lift these many waters
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves
Before we turn still waters to rolling waves
