A Small part of the World 3rd grade Spring Program

Small Part of the World I am a small part of the world I have a small hand which to hold But if I stand by your side And you put your hand in mine Together we can be so strong and bold I am a small part of the world I have a small dream in my eye But if I tell you my dreams And if you add yours to mine Together we can reach up to the sky Hand in hand dreams combine Voice with voice together for all time

Small Part of the World Hand in hand dreams combine I am a small part of the world I have a small voice ringing clear But if I sing out for freedom And if you add your voice to mine Together we have nothing left to fear Hand in hand dreams combine Voice with voice together for all time I am a small part of the world Take my hand
