Make a Wave Music Video
Lyrics to the chorus:
Just a pebble in the water Can set the sea in motion A simple act of kindness Can stir the widest ocean If we show a little love Heaven knows what we could change So throw a pebble in the water And make a wave, make a wave |
|
- This video raises awareness for oceans and shows students the importance of making a change in the world.
- Made for the movie “Oceans”
- The proceeds from the song and music video went to the Disney Worldwide Conservation fund.
