Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They say the world is changing,
And fear is hard to fight.
But the sunrise doesn’t ask you
What color is your light.
The river keeps on moving,
It don’t know your name,
And every heart that’s beating
Beats the same.

[Chorus]
It’s not a great replacement,
It’s the circle we all share.
Different hands and voices
Planting futures everywhere.
No one’s left behind us,
No soul is out of place.
The nation’s greatest treasure
Is the love we can embrace.

[Verse 2]
I’ve heard the words of anger,
I’ve seen the fences rise.
But no wall in the valley
Can ever block the skies.
The fields are wide and waiting,
The harvest calls us near.
We’re stronger when we’re gathered,
Every voice sincere.

[Chorus]
It’s not a great replacement,
It’s the circle we all share.
Different hands and voices
Planting futures everywhere.
No one’s left behind us,
No soul is out of place.
The nation’s greatest treasure
Is the love we can embrace.

[Bridge]
The road is long before us,
But the steps are free.
When we walk together,
That’s democracy.
The song is always sweeter,
When the choir is wide.
Harmony is stronger
With every side.

[Final Chorus]
It’s not a great replacement,
It’s a chance to start again.
To turn the fear to friendship,
To turn strangers into friends.
No one’s left behind us,
No soul is out of place.
The nation’s greatest future
Is the love we can embrace.
