Looking For A King

I'm looking for a King,
a Kennedy, a Rosa Parks
walking the halls of learning;
I'm looking for those
with an honourable stride,
their heart's compass steering.

I'm calling you~come
to your destiny and our aid,
your country needs you;
I'm calling you~come
in the twilight of the day,
light the lantern anew.

Light the lantern anew,
feed the hope and the hungry;
the few that dare to dream
must ignite the country.
Light the lantern anew,
hold it up against the night,
for the few that dare to dream
must ignite the country.

I'm looking for a Lincoln,
Ladies Liberty and Justice
on the sidewalks of smalltown;
I'm looking for those who
could be a nation's pride
in a graduation gown.

I'm calling you~come
to your destiny and our aid,
your country needs you;
I'm calling you~come
in the twilight of the day,
light the lantern anew.

Light the lantern anew,
feed the hope and the hungry,
the few that dare to dream
must ignite the country;
light the lantern anew,
hold it up against the night,
for the few that dare to dream
must ignite the country,
the few that dare to dream
must ignite the country.

Looking for a King to
light the lantern anew.
