Stand Up

I've been thinking about the way we live
The things we take and the things we give
There's a fire burning in the dark
It only takes a little tiny spark
To light the way and show us how to be
To set our spirits and our people free

So stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard
Speak your truth, every single word
Don't be afraid to take a stand
Hand in hand across the land
Stand up, stand up, the time is now
To make a change, we'll show them how

There's a rhythm beating in our hearts
A brand new story where the future starts
We can't be silent, we can't look away
We've got to face the challenges today
With courage in our souls and hope in sight
We'll push through the shadows into the light

So stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard
Speak your truth, every single word
Don't be afraid to take a stand
Hand in hand across the land
Stand up, stand up, the time is now
To make a change, we'll show them how

Believe in the power that we hold inside
With love as our compass and truth as our guide
Together we're stronger, together we're one
Our journey together has only begun

So stand up, stand up and let your voice be heard
Speak your truth, every single word
Don't be afraid to take a stand
Hand in hand across the land
Stand up, stand up, the time is now
To make a change, we'll show them how
