(Verse 1) 

Woke up this mornin’, 
sun shinin’ in my face 
Heard a whisper on the wind, 
a message for the human race 
Said, 
“Open up your heart, 
let compassion be your guide 
We’re all connected, 
intertwined, 
can’t leave no one behind”

(Chorus) 
Yeah, 
the world’s a tapestry, 
threads of every hue 
Woven together, me and you 
From the mountains to the sea, 
one grand symphony 
Singin’ a song of unity, 
eternally

(Verse 2) 
Walked down the dusty road, 
met a stranger with a smile 
Shared stories of our journeys, 
for a little while 
Heard the laughter of children, 
playin’ in the sun 
Felt the rhythm of the heartbeat, 
everyone as one

(Chorus) 
Yeah, 
the world’s a tapestry, 
threads of every hue 
Woven together, 
me and you 
From the mountains to the sea, 
one grand symphony 
Singin’ a song of unity, 
eternally

(Bridge) 
Ancient wisdom whispers, 
from the scriptures old and new 
The truth is always there, 
shinin’ bright and true 
In every leaf and every stone, 
a spark of the divine 
A universal message, 
for all space and time

(Chorus) 
Yeah, 
the world’s a tapestry, 
threads of every hue 
Woven together, 
me and you 
From the mountains to the sea, 
one grand symphony 
Singin’ a song of unity, 
eternally

(Outro) 
So let your light shine brightly, 
let your love flow free 
Join the chorus of voices, 
singin’ harmony 
Together we’ll rise above, 
break the chains that bind 
And create a world of peace, 
for all humankind
