One Torch, One Flame, One Light

Verse 1

All around the world this torch of light
Brings the flame of hope in China’s darkest night
For those who have the dream of being free
And the tortured ones in prison no one can ever see
For those who speak out and stand up for their rights
Now it’s time to shine the light

CHORUS

One torch, one flame, one light held high
For all the world to see
This torch, this flame, this light held high
For all humanity
Our torch, our flame, our light held high
For everyone deserves to be free

Verse 2

The China of today is a devil’s dream
Eighty million killed by this communist regime
They kill good people of faith and the peaceful Falun Gong
They rip out their organs and sell them for a song
They kill people in Tibet, pay to kill those in Darfur
Now it’s time to say no more

CHORUS

One torch, one flame, one light held high
For all the world to see
This torch, this flame, this light held high
For all humanity
Our torch, our flame, our light held high
For everyone deserves to be free

Bridge

One light for freedom, one flame in the night
One torch for all human rights
One torch is burning, the whole world can see
All people deserve to be free

Verse 3

Over in Bejing under bloody, black skies
The Olympics will be held, and we are asking why
China lies and kills to stay in power
The Olympics in Bejing are the free world’s darkest hour
When our torch arrives on the day those games begin
So many grateful lives will sing again

CHORUS

One torch, one flame, one light held high
For all the world to see
This torch, this flame, this light held high
For all humanity
Our torch, our flame, our light held high
For everyone deserves to be free
One torch, one flame. one light held high
This torch, this flame, this light held high
Our torch, our flame, our light held high
