About the Song
Jan Ian, the author of this song, has created a project where many artists have recorded covers of this song. https://www.bettertimeswillcome.com/
Better times, better times will come (2x)
When this world learns to live as one
Oh better times will come
When we greet each dawn without fear
Knowing loved ones soon will be near
When the winds of war cannot blow any more
Oh, better times will come
Though we live each day as our last
We know someday soon it will pass
We will dance, we will sing in that never-ending spring
Oh, better times will come

Charlie King added a new 3rd verse:
When we cherish each life as a gift
When the storm clouds of hatred lift
When we rise as one, we shall overcome
Oh, better times will come
