No greater power
No greater gift to lose
Than the message unspoken
The silence of the truth
Alone we hid in the shadows
But together we bring on the light.
One voice is not strong enough
One heart just won't do
In this world I don't count for much
Unless I stand for you.
Oh, we are the beginning
Of a sound that might be heard
To the many who lie waiting
Our words break through the cold grip of silence
And they guide us through the night.
One voice is not strong enough
One heart just won't do
In this world I don't count for much
Unless I stand for you.
One choice is all we got
One fact remains true
In this world I don't count for much
Unless I stand for you.
Not another minute, not another hour,
We're gonna rise oon up
Every man woman and child
(I believe that the time has come)
Oh, I stand for you.
Alone, we hide in the shadows
But together we bring on the light.
