From the recording Raise Your Voice
"Raise Your Voice" is a song of hope and unity. It is a call to action to join in and speak up for what we believe in. I chose to sing about civility, integrity, equality and humanity because I think they are guiding forces that have shaped our country from it’s very beginning, and the things we need to keep front and center as we come together to stand for our country, and heal as a society.
Lyrics
I’m singing for our country…raise your voice with me
Singing for our country…raise your voice with me
I’m singing for our country
Won’t you raise your voice with me?
I’m singing for our country…raise your voice with me
I’m singing for civility...raise your voice with me
Singing for civility...raise your voice with me
Kind in word and deed
It’s something that we sorely need
I’m singing for civility...raise your voice with me
I’m singing for integrity…raise your voice with me
Singing for integrity…raise your voice with me
The truth does not divide
We’re strongest when we’re unified
I’m singing for integrity…raise your voice with me
O-oh, this is what I know
When we stand together our power
Ooh-ee, this is what I see
We can be the difference, it’s up to you and me
I’m singing for equality…raise your voice with me
Singing for equality…raise your voice with me
Equal not the same
in that there should be no shame
I’m singing for equality…raise your voice with me
O-oh, this is what I know
When we stand together our power
Ooh-ee, this is what I see
We can be the difference, it’s up to you and me
I’m singing for humanity…raise your voice with me
Singing for humanity…raise your voice with me
This land is mine this land is yours
We built her strong with open doors
I’m singing for humanity…raise your voice with me
I’m singing for our country…raise your voice with me
Singing for our country…raise your voice with me
When we raise our voices we are free
To be the change we want to see
I’m singing for our country…raise your voice with me
I said I’m singing for our country…raise your voice with me
I said I’m singing for our country
(Here we go)
Raise…
Raise your voice with me
Raise your voice with me
