Lyrics
Movie version
Life can be a challenge
Life can seem impossible
It's never easy when so much
Is on the line
But you can make a difference
With courage, you can set things right
The gift to dream and make dreams real
Is yours and mine
The power of one
Begins with believing
It starts in the heart,
Then flows through the soul
And changes the world
Imagine how life will be
When we stand in unity
Each of us holds the key
To the power of one
Then one by one
We can make the world
A much better place
The power of one
Begins with believing
It starts in the heart,
Then flows through the soul
And changes the world
Imagine how life will be
When we stand in unity
Each of us holds the key
It's inside of you and me
Each of us holds the key
To the power of one
Full version
You must always remember:
Life can be a challenge
Life can seem impossible
It's never easy when so much
Is on the line
But you can make a difference
With courage, you can set things right
The gift to dream and make dreams real
Is yours and mine
The power of one
Begins with believing
It starts in the heart,
Then flows through the soul
And changes the world
Imagine how life will be
When we stand in unity
Each of us holds the key
To the power of one
Each of us is chosen
There's a mission just for you
Just look inside, you'll be surprised
What you can do
The power of one
Begins with believing
It starts in the heart,
Then flows through the soul
And changes the world
Imagine how life will be
When we stand in unity
Each of us holds the key
To the power of one
Then one by one
We can make the world
A much better place
The power of one
Begins with believing
It starts in the heart,
Then flows through the soul
And changes the world
Imagine how life will be
When we stand in unity
Each of us holds the key
It's inside of you and me
Each of us holds the key
To the power of one
The power of one
